What flightsim are you using?

I am still using FS2004, it works for me and it performs great on my system.

Hope this is fine with the admins to ask this?

Y E S.. asked by Jimm too if I'm not mistaken :lol:

You say you're using 2004 Jimm but all your recent posts point toward you using FSX (again) *-) You'll probably find the result of any survey now will pan out like this..
a) Some have FSX and have binned FS9 so only use the new sim.
b) Some have both and move between the 2.
c) Some still can't run FSX for whatever reason and would if they could so only use FS9
d) Some have both.. don't like FSX but CBA to delete it.
e) Some have tried both, don't like FSX and have binned it.

There.. I think that covers most folk :lol:

Yes *-)

I thought it was Jimm too :dunno:

In addition there are some who don't like FS.X much but run it so they can use some of the Fs.X masterpieces that have no FS.9 version..like DG and Ricks latest stuff.

Yes.. that would come under b) :lol: It was easier to have 'one fits all' rather than have one saying they had both but liked one more and another saying they had both but liked the other one more :cpu:

As it happens, you're bang on :lol: I'm very much in the 'b' area. ;) I don't do much flitting between the 2 but enjoy having both available :agree:

This is what I feel :)

Anyone who can have both on may just as well do so and the choice is there.

Let the mood take you :)

I've got both on now.

FSX is mainly used with payware aircraft, scenery and REX. If i have a lot of time due to long loading timessszzzzzzzzzzz..........
FS9 is used with freeware scenery, aircraft and a very large WOAI install. If I want a quick flight or to load in and out different aircraft or change locations quickly.

Some cross over with dual FS9/X freeware aircraft but in the main aircraft are either in one or the other but not both.
