Flytampa Dubai is up at Flightsim.com!

Whoa there, hold on a minute - isn't that a payware scenery? I just checked Flytampa website and it doesn't say this is freeware!

Better check first...
 
The person goes by the name Ahmed Ansari. I'm not beyond putting their name out there.

Jvile said the following:

This is not the first time Ahmed Ansari has taken
payware and protected freeware such as my approach files
out of other airports and uploaded to web sites.

The sad part is he does it by design
and not by mistake. On several occasions in
the past I have had AVSIM and Flightsim.com
remove his uploads that include my approach
files that he disassembles and installs in his airports.
At one point in time he was selling some of my
freeware approach files on payware sites and
I had to get them removed.

@Martin

Front page of FSPlanet has already
pick the file up and allowing downloads
of 16.1 Mb. I don't know if you can
get it removed from there.

What a jackass. I'm really getting tired of these guys out there who seek to do harm everywhere they roam. I don't have enough guns or bullets to deal with all of them.

No need for guns - all you need is piano wire!:icon_twi:
 
How about no need for silly quotes of violent acts that I hope my fellow humans would not ever commit over intellectual property? ... :kilroy:

Maybe, just due process? Good lord people, not like these people are raping women and children, or killing other humans....
 
Of course it was a false comment Pilatus. I do however think there is no punishment for people who do such things. The FBI and local police simply don't have time to deal with someone, especially if the act is occuring in another country and is for a niche product. Who cares, as you said there are more important things.

HOWEVER, illegal is illegal. While rape, murder and otherwise is all more serious than the simple act taking a commercial piece of software and distributing it illegally, it STILL IS ILLEGAL. Let's not forget that.
 
Thank you for taking the time to consider my rationale there, but you do have a good point, too. :ernae:

I always save the 'skinning of genitalia' and 'use of piano wire' for those individuals mentioned... for whom I do have an intense dislike. Mom raped in 70's, and murderers and torturers truly are a waste of the oxygen, along with those rapists. I can't imagine how full of rage I would be if someone violated my young woman I loves.

Anyway, back to topic: I reviewed the St. Maarten scenery by FlyTampa, so it immediately looked at that their product was at a freeware site.
 
Soo...I stumbled across this at flightsim.com, downloaded it, and installed it in my flight simulator.
Hey, maybe they were shedding payware at the end of its life, like ALPHASIM does?

Now what? :isadizzy:
