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.

Looks like Virtavia has begun putting up some (former) AlphaSim payware packages at FS Pilot Shop: http://www.fspilotshop.com/index.php?manufacturers_id=333&osCsid=9a25077c770c09e16254d7bede72644c
Hopefully more to come. I was about to get the P2V package when AlphaSim shut down.
.....come with the same ultra-invasive copy-protection scheme as the recent Virtavia FSX Sea King release ?
Thanks a lot for the link, I went there and grabbed it. :salute: Kinda strange that these Virtavia packages of the former AlphaSim planes are not all available at the same vendor.You can get the VIRTAVIA - LOCKHEED P2V-7 NEPTUNE at Simmarket:

So we don't have to speculate I'll ask Phil and report back.Not having bought anything under the new umbrella, this statement is a little worrying. FSD did their reputation a huge amount of damage with overly zealous security policies, accusing many people of piracy when they were just trying to reload product - it would be a real shame if the good name of Alphasim should be similarly tarnished by this new arrangement.![]()
