• 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.

From our perspective ACADEMY its enough and...it is even required for home users (some add-ons work with the Academy ONLY). The main difference is the logo in the upper right corner.

[FONT=&quot]The only technical differences in the software are that the Academic version has a different splash screen and a small watermark in the top-right corner of the main window. Please be aware that they have different EULAs and usage restrictions. Full details can be found on the [/FONT]License Comparison page[FONT=&quot].[/FONT]

Zsolt, unless you want to open an aviation school then take Professional Plus or your are Developer ;).

Better to take v5 I suppose, see performance:

 
You get the same except a watermark on screen as YoYo said. Yep - no personal consumer or gaming users here-:semi-twins:
 
I am a retired, hung up to dry pilot, who is staying in practice just in case someone wants to take me up flying, so I can teach them some pointers. For some reason the FAA thinks I am too medically unfit to fly alone. Or was that mentally? :dizzy:
 
Ah the "Link Trainer " remember that one, like riding on the back of a greasy pig except it was a bastard rotating black box made you sweat just looking at it! Not sure about the medical business they said the same thing about Bob Hoover, now I fly alone at home, solves all the problems especially some 6 year old trying to teach me what I already knew or watching them trying to kill themselves and redesign the airframe in the process LOL!

I was a kid when I flew the Link Trainer. The local squadron of the Civil Air Patrol (CAP) had one. My dad was a member and let me fly it. All I remember were these glowing gauges. When my dad closed the door, I got scared and started crying. That ended my sim flight. But, I still flew the Link. No matter how short the flight was. :)

As for the medical. I am a bionic man with five heart stents and a pacemaker. Still, they help keep me alive, so the FAA should be a little flexible. I am happy to fly the simulators. I don't have to keep up with the Aeronautical Information Manual/Federal Aviation Regs. (AIM/FAR) any longer.
