I have the PRO version since the begining and like this bird and the immersion features to fully manage her.
A careful view definition (I use ChasePlane) allow a full VC only management.
But if you like 2D panel, you have pletora of them ;)
You have plenty of task during the flight - you are in charge...

The aircraft have been regularly updated and improved and a B314A version has been annouced.
So no regret on the PRO...

Thanks for the input. I've read an older review on Avsim that they offer an update to pro from the basic version.
I sent an email to Pilots asking about that. I'd like to take advantage of the sale they have. I've seen the video
review on the Pro version and there are a lot of things going on in the various stations onboard.

I did some research on B314A

Model 314A
Improved version with 1,600 horsepower (1,200 kW) Twin Cyclones with larger-diameter propellers, additional 1,200 US gallons (4,500 l; 1,000 imp gal) fuel capacity, and revised interior. Still air range approx 4,700 miles. Six built, three for Pan Am and three sold to BOAC

I wonder if that will be a separate sell.

Also was a C-98 military verson.
 
I see that the PRO version is 40 eur during the sale.
Frankly, for that price, it is a real bargain !

I was in process of checkout when I saw a couple options

If I uncheck shipping options will it download the file or is this sent by mail only
on CD/DVD?

At 40 Euro you get , as Gerard is saying, a very comprehensive plane. Fly's well in its envelop and you will be very busy as you do what 3 did in the plane

And graphically stunning too
