Ben Gurion - why such high prices for P3D?
Ray Proudfoot replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Shop Questions & Answers
I bought Ben Gurion last month. I guessed Aerosoft wouldn’t lower the price even though sales for P3D must be close to flatlining. Performance is good but given I have an i9-13900K, 32Gb RAM and a 4090 I’d expect nothing less. I’m more than satisfied with P3Dv5. When I look at the state of MSFS I have no desire to buy a sim with so many unresolved issues. -
PMDG777 for P3D on sale but for how much longer?
Ray Proudfoot replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Aircraft General
@Kalnon, no worries. Yes, love the aircraft but with the weather so glorious here in England I haven’t been in front of my PC for over a week. -
I’m interested in Ben Gurion Airport for P3Dv5. When searching for it there is a premium for the P3D and XP versions compared to the MSFS one. Why? Sales for P3D have plummeted and many other sellers have discounts for their P3D stock. But Aerosoft never does. How about matching the MSFS price? https://www.aerosoft.com/en/search?sSearch=Ben+gurion

PMDG777 for P3D on sale but for how much longer?
Ray Proudfoot replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Aircraft General
@Kalnon, I bought it and the 300ER expansion pack the day after that post. If it’s still available then Aerosoft have got more sense than PMDG. Flew Manchester to Singapore last week. Great performance and no streaming problems! -
I've discovered on AvSim it is.

I'm considering Napoli for P3Dv5 but the compatibility list stops at v4. Is it okay with v5? https://secure.simmarket.com/aerosoft-napoli-x-fsx-p3d.phtml

PFPX v2.03 - hanging when Validating Plan
Ray Proudfoot replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Tools/Missions General
Given PFPX was made available for home users I fail to understand your point. The software has performed flawlessly for years. Monday's glitch was just that, a glitch as Stephen suggested. Planning a flight this morning with AS running and all is well. -
PFPX v2.03 - hanging when Validating Plan

Hi Stephen. Validation is part of the process to complete the planning process. If you say there was a server issue yesterday that probably explains the problem. I’m out today it will try tomorrow. Thanks. -
PFPX v2.03 - hanging when Validating Plan
Ray Proudfoot replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Tools/Missions General
Later... Active Sky runs on my P3D computer and is currently turned off so no access to weather for PFPX. Running PFPX on my laptop I'm now able to complete the process. It looks like there was something in Wx that PFPX didn't like. I'll continue to test on Wednesday and report back. -
This morning I downloaded and installed the latest Rad Restrictions file kindly provided by Sharky. But when planning a flight the process is hanging when Validate Flight is selected. I know Esc will stop the process but it doesn't release the flight. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix other than using the previous cycle?

Many thanks Joe. That's very much appreciated by me and many others I'm sure. @Mathijs Kok, one question. I bought this airport from PC Aviator, not Aerosoft but of course it's an Aerosoft product. I've tried to contact them several times but no reply. Any chance that when Joe provides the P3D update you could make it available to me please? I can provide a receipt.
-
Agreed but I had to do an internet search to find contact details for him. It would be helpful if those were included.

You replied before reading my next post.

The developer is Jo Erlend Sund. He has developed Oslo too and was interviewed here. https://www.simflight.com/2024/06/19/interview-jo-erlend-sund/ He has his own website and can be contacted here… https://www.joerlendsund.com/contact I’ll be writing to him and suggest others unhappy about him not updating P3D EDDK do the same. Perhaps if enough of us do it he’ll help us out.

Ricardo at LatinVFR supplied updated fixes for Barcelona when 07/25 runways changed. The problem buying from Aerosoft is they don’t tell you who the developer is. Perhaps if they did we could ask him to update the files. Runway designation changes are very infrequent. Perhaps every 20 years. Once done they won’t need doing again.
