• 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.

SWS phantom free NOW until April 12th!

Further update

Level - hand flying - trimmed flight has been achieved! Not sure why, but a reload of the sim seemed to make a number systems function that weren't. Not yet giving up on this ship.

My apologies for the thread hijack however the SOH is the only way to reach SWS F-4 owners as a group to compare notes and share troubleshooting.
 



Got email from SWS and they say this will be free TILL Apr 12.

In the email:

"In order to provide you with an extra incentive to stay at home, we decided to give away our legacy F-4B Phantom II for free until Sunday the 12th.

The legacy F-4B is compatible with FSX-P3Dv4 and comes bundled with USS Coral Sea which is powered by our Carriers Extended! technology, creating the ultimate carrier ops package!"

They plan on a PBR version of the Midway that will be V4/5 specific and will have to conduct extensive tests.
 
To clear out the confusion:

The SimMarket giveaway was scheduled FOR April 12th. SimMarket activated it early by accident and shut it down. No harm done, it will be back online on Sunday.

We are making it available UNTIL the 12th on our site.

Feel free to attack either!
 
For some reason Just Flight where I bought the original SWS F-4 has the PBR edition at full price with no "upgrade" option or price for customers who bought the old F-4 at JF.

I also purchased the SWS Phantom from Just Flight, and asked them about that. Their reply was that they had sent out an email
with a discount code, I believe sometime in February. I couldn't recall receiving, so they re-sent the email to me with the discount
code. Because of finances, I haven't used it yet.

However, when Ferry_vo first announced the free SWS Phantom on Simmarket, it was being offered for free at that time (I guess
Simmarket jumped the gun a bit), and I picked it up even though I already had it from Just Flight -it's free, right? - and just left it
in my Simmarket account. But now when I go into my Simmarket account, the PBR version automatically shows with the discount
price .

So if you want the PBR version at the discount price, you can either ask Just Flight to re-send the email with the discount code, or
wait for the Phantom to be offered for free on Simmarket, and then purchase the PBR upgrade there. Or do both like I did and
compare upgrade prices. :mixed-smiley-010:
