  1. I just bought the M20 collection, not realizing it is for "XP11 only" until I opened the sim and notice the (v11) near the aircraft thumbnails. Then I went back and read the store page again and say the "XP 11 only" disclaimer. There's no way to refund this, is there?
  2. There is a Carenado B1900 for XP11 if you're interested in that.
  3. My first time back in the forums since quite a while ago. So much has happened in the intervening years. I believe I was still working on my commercial multi-engine rating at university the last time I spent any appreciable time here. I was a little active since then, but not much. I have since I graduated from university. I became a flight instructor. I began working for Horizon Air, then upgraded to captain and got married. I bought a home and got hired by Delta Air Lines. And now I have a daughter on the way. I never left flight simulation in this period, however. Earlier this year I bought MSFS, and recently just picked up XP12 as well. Both XP and MSFS have been helpful for my training at Delta. I've got CQ next month, so I'm going to get some more practice in before I hit the schoolhouse again.

  4. This (ice simulation) is something I've wanted for so long!
  5. As with all your products, I'm patiently excited to purchase as soon as they are ready (provided my wallet isn't starving).
  6. I desperately need this, the DC-3, and now the TBM900. But like always, I'm happy to wait. Hope all is well. Regards, Happy Return Customer
  7. I've completed two flights in it so far. It's great and I haven't found any issues whatsoever! Also, I don't have a very powerful machine, but it still runs so well!
  8. I don't want to cause a ruckus, but it looks like V1.5 is now available. I'm installing as I speak.
  9. I don't even have a setup to fly it right now, but I went ahead and just messed around with the startup procedures just because it's such a satisfying aircraft to handle. I'm sure excited to have a fully-compatible version, but I'm happy to wait.
  10. I'm sure doing it that way will also help keep stress down, which will keep morale up, which will be good for everyone.
  11. Goran, I for one am happy waiting as long as it takes (especially since the wait is no longer even up to you). I'll always be a customer (provided I earn enough money from job, which isn't paying very much at the moment).
  12. I second this. Thank you so much for this excellent aircraft!
  13. happening to me too... SOLVED: Quit and re-started X-Plane.
  14. I have my CFI job interview in a couple hours. I'm expecting it to go well. If anyone here has an opinion about debriefing apps like CloudAhoy, I'm open to hear them. I want to be the most effective CFI possible and use as many (worthwhile) resources as is practical.
  15. I want to clarify, although I'm following the very common path of instructing briefly before flying for an airline, I intend to put my all into flight instructing. It's something I will be continuing after I get to Horizon (in a different capacity), and it's something I am very excited and passionate about. Being an instructor isn't just a means to an end for me; it's a new way of being a pilot and something at which I will work hard to keep improving.
  16. I'm too excited not to announce this, so here it is: As of last Thursday, I am a certified flight instructor. After nearly a decade of flying, four years at university, and tons of debt, I have achieved my penultimate goal and I am now certified to train new pilots. The oral exam went great, and the flight was just as great. And completing this certificate satisfied my final university credit. I already have an interview scheduled with my flight school (next Monday), and on top of that, I qualify for the R-ATP, so upon receiving an additional ≈650 hours, I will automatically be hired by Horizon Air as part of a conditional job agreement I entered with them. I'll finally be paying off my student loans, paying back my parents, and earning a living.
  17. Blender is probably the most powerful, but also has a steep learning curve. If you are new to 3D modeling, regardless of which program you choose, it's going to require a lot of practice.
  18. As of this afternoon, I am a proud new holder of a commercial multi-engine pilot certificate (I'll be getting the single-engine commercial add-on soon). I am to begin CFI training this week and I have 3 airline interviews this week as well. After many, MANY setbacks, I've nearly reached my goal of becoming an airline pilot, and it feels so good!
  19. You know, now that I think about it, I believe you're right. I've come across a few oddball systems that function how I was thinking, but yeah, I was wrong on this one. ...certainly makes my job a lot easier. Haha
