• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

A case to buy direct?

SOH-CM-2025
I have purchased a lot of stuff from PC Aviator. They are in South Carolina, my wife's home and where I was stationed at one time. Among the purchases were A2A products and Carenado aircraft.

Last week both companies released products updated for V4 . PC Aviator has yet the release the updates. If I had purchased them directly from Carenado and A2A, I would have the updated aircraft. So has to not just pick on PC Aviator, Sim Market did the same thing with FSUIPC.

Content distributors have a lot of competition. Rarely are they the sole distributor of an add-on product. It would behoove them to quickly release a upgraded product. Especially, one that is version critical.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong. In my mind all it takes to put the new version in the distribution channel is a few like of html code to set up the link and change the copy slightly.

Impatient,
 
I take a buy direct policy where I can . Keep the developers happy. Has its benefits such as Milviz - will cost nothing to upgrade to v4 but if bought from shop there is a $5 fee and of course, the fastest updates.
