mrzippy Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 SCAM! It's really freeware FlightGear. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnost Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 I thought so, but did they not change the name? Found the website - they charge some hefty prices, especially for optional PRO scenery.

il88pp Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 As zippy said, it's a scam. They are selling the open source Free program Flightgear. And charging an outrageous price for it. You can download Flightgear for free. (and if you download Flightgear you would get the most recent version of flightgear.) plenty of threads on here about this btw. (Just type in the search box using quotes.) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnost Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 I was aware of the ongoing scam, but got curious because the new program title sounded like it was a flightsim for virtual reality. Anyway - thanks both for the info!
