• 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 couple of evenings ago, I flew into the stock KSPG. It was horribly rendered - especially for such an important airport. It's the home of the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. So I started looking around. First on the .to map - nothing there. Then a Google search led me first to SimMarket, and a payware version from 2023 and a version # 2.4.1, but listed as "Inactive Product." Well... Back to Google, and a link to Ini's website. Same airport, same dev, this time advertised for both versions of the MS sim, but version 1.0.0 - so I guess only the dev knows what the real version number is. I took the drone up after spawning, and sadly, the entire race course is not replicated. In fact, some of the photogrammetry just outside the field is rough at best. But the race course features that are part of the field are there, including rumble strips around the turns and pit stall markings on pit lane. I didn't try to get any shots, since the ones on the product page are pretty much the same as what I saw. The price is decent for a medium sized GA/executive field with good exterior detail.

Purchase is available via the website or the Ini app, but install has to be via the app.
