Hi there Robert
I'm very sorry to hear this; I was extremely far away from IYP community
and stopped contributing, So I was not aware of the events that have
occurred to you. I'm extremely sorry to hear about your wife, please
accept my condolences.
I'd just like you to know that working with IYP and being able to use
the flight simulator was the 'most' brilliant moments of my life
during the passed 22 years that i've lived, and years to come in the
future. If someone asks me that what was the most exciting thing i've
ever done in my life, I'd say the moment i've found out about IYP and
the fact that I could have it.
So where ever you are and whatever you're doing, I wish you and your
family the best and all the good things.
I'm also struggling with life; although I'm at my final stages of moving
out of the country, so I guess once I'm out of these terrifying moments
I can get back at IYP again and start supporting other blind users.
I'll be around and help visually impaired users to install fsx and IYP
(Also specially since i recently got the steam version, Ic an help with
them as well). I've released a podcast about IYP last year, I'll be
doing another one this year as well.

Hello Zack,
Earlier this year, my wife of 40-years finally lost her prolonged battle with cancer. Contemporaneous with that life-altering travesty, our family was hit with another devestating family disaster that instantly transmogrified my life from that of a retired 74-year old enjoying life by assisting blind and physically disabled individuals, into an old person with a full time job tending to two young grandchildren.
Thus, all development of IYP regrettably needed to cease.
I continue to assist IYP users as well as I can, however I rarely have sufficient time to even get a descent night's sleep.
As far as the software is concerned, IYP is rock solid. There are well over 10,000 pilots still using IYP on a regualr basis. If there's a problem, it is (without doubt) an installation problem. I have not altered the code since mid-June 2105, simply because there has been no need to do so.
The system works extremely well with the Steam version of FSX and there are no problems with IYP working on Windows 10.
I hope this clarifies the situation.
Regards,
Robert
PS. Glad to see you're getting back into flying.

may or may not get helped with. Before Robert can say anything, I
have the e-mail Ron forwarded to me stating as such. I have
upgraded to an all CH Products Flight Control system, and it has
worked out well so far.

or so, back when IYP and friends were relatively new. I had a
fairly extensive collection of add-ons, including AI traffic,
sundry ATC software, and other bits and bobs I’ve since forgotten.

I've recently been bitten by the bug again. I had to buy the Steam
edition of FSX, which is mostly usable even though Steam itself sucks.
