Classic British Flight Sim

I thought as things were quiet here, it would be a good time to see what percentage of our members fly their British classics in FS9, or has FSX finally taken over?
This is not a post to re-run the arguments as to why and where for, just a quick snapshot to see the current state of play, halfway through the life of FSX.

If it turns into the usual (impossible to settle) argument, I will delete the thread. :o :o

Hi Trev

Needs a box for love to try it but can't afford to upgrade to it...in others words stuck with FS.9 not by choice.

Garry

FSX all the way here
Don't even have FS9 installed at the moment :o

I've had FSX for a couple of weeks now and love it! Not many add-ons as yet. I'm keeping FS9 for multiplayer flying and when I fancy blatting around in one of the many aircraft I have installed that won't work in FSX. I can see my FS9 gathering dust before too long though.

I've tried the FSX demo, really like it and have the spare cash. BUT I love 9 Dragons and Dave Maltby's aircraft

So until I get bored with them, there's not a lot of point in buying it. I'm with you FSX guys in spirit, but carry on without me for the time being. Don't worry about me, I'm having fun!

I have both and rarely used FS9 after I put on FSX. That is until recently when I started to fly FS9 online with the guys here although most of those guys have now moved over to FSX.

I almost deleted FS9 from my drive a few months ago but since Shockwave brought out their 3D lights for FS9 I still need it for beta-testing new developments so I guess I will be running both for a while yet although by choice I go for FSX for my 'fun' flying.

I fly both but FS9 is still my favourite and I probably do 80% of my flying in FS9. FSX will eventually take over - but not for a long time.

I have no intention at all to run FSX on my new PC. I upgraded just to keep the older software. I'm still happy with it and just dont see the point of changing to the newer version.

Martin

I too have both installed and tend to use FSX more than FS9.......Took a long time to try FSX as I was sure it would be a slideshow but with both SP1 and SP2 now installed the performance is very acceptable and suits me very well. As some of my favourite aircraft are FS9 only, I know that I will be keeping both versions installed for the forseeable future.

Regards.

I am sticking with Fs9.
I have so many addons ASv6.5, FSNav, scenery and acft etc. that I just do not see a good reason to buy something that I just do not need at present.
