    I guess not even Lockheed Martin "owns" Prepar3D, else they would have the freedom to publish it without use restrictions inside their EULA. But, yes, it's interesting, a nice poll where we'll able to see how much flight simulation enthusiasts from this forum bought a license.

    Happy flying !

    If I did own it, I'd be afraid to admit it.

    Why? If you fall into one of the categories LM lists on their licencing page, you can go right ahead and purchase a licence. Private pilots, for example, can buy it to use it for flight training.

    Yes sir, your point is well taken.

    I was thinking of things like the Martin Marauder, Kelly Johnson and the skunk works, the F104 Starfighter, the U2, the SR 71. Things like that. These guys are (or were at least)among the gods of aviation history. In that light I re-pose my original question

    IF I legitimately qualified, I might purchase it when v2 is released.
    I suppose I could qualify as a developer if I created an add-on for it. Dunno...Don

    Why is LM even boothering with P3D?

    Perhaps they are bothering because there is a market for it? FSX is not licenced for commercial use, yet it can be very useful with everything from testing new cockpit designs, flight training, to airport layouts and traffic patterns. There have been, and are, other options out here, but they are expensive. Hence Microsoft's creation of the ESP product, which has evolved into Prepar3D.

    Here's a theoretical question. If you pay the monthly subscription, that means you don't own it right?
