Cor Blimey!! :o

I think it's at the stage where it has become too advanced for me to use/appreciate though it does look rather good. It's hit the very difinate/maybe box ;-)

Tks for that Ben :thumbsup:

Awesome. I'll be getting that shortly since I've got AS6.5 and ASX and would love to drop to just one version to run when flying.

The Hurricane simulation is awesome with ASX & FSX so it'll be cool to see if they got it to work in FS9 now.

Now that is truly tempting. :thumbsup:

Just one problem.......It may well take more time to set up the weather along the route (If not using real weather) than it would to fly the sector?!! :worried:

Have to admit I've dumped activesky as it just took too long to set up etc and have reverted to Sandon Lyns' 'Real Sky'. Looks better imho and sim runs faster too - funny I'd forgotten how good it is...... :thumbsup:

Best wishes

Ben, thanks for that link. I've got Activesky 6.5 for FS9, and I see they do an upgrade to ASX for a reduced price. Another one on the list for when I upgrade. :)
