Morning all,
just learnt that the seemingly annual CS sale will take place from 00:01 thru to 23.59 on Monday 29th December.
Everything on their site will be € 9.99 including the full 'Pro' packs by all accounts.
Now with the unexplained weakness of the pound against the Euro, it's not looking as good as last year where the FS9 complete C130 package cost me about £6, but for £10 this year there's a certain amount of Christmas money that I can foresee heading their way!
HTH
Dave.

Just put a sticky on my monitor. I'd be daft not to get the C-130 Pro pack if it really is down in price by that much. Thanks very much, Dave.

Just to confirm - the C-130 Pro Pack is indeed down to 9.99 Euros (£9.74 when I purchased it). Excellent value for money!

Thanks for the heads up!
Even though I've already got quite a few of the "heavies" the 757 had always interested me....but not at that price (60 euro's +)
Now I've just picked up the base and the freighter expansion at the grand total of £9.74 each, seems like quite a good bargin!

Just picked up the C130 pro pack

Already had the base pack, but not the two expansion packs. Easily worth a tenner.

Chaps, does any of this work properly in FSX?

Got the C-130 Pro pack too, what a bargain!
Ben, the C-130 X-perience ( which the Pro Pack comes under ) is for FSX. The Legendary C-130 is for FS9. Are you having problems ?

Not yet lol

I bought the 757 before (about a year ago) which was for FSX, however the frame rates where appauling, even at an empty stock airport and on closer inspection their forum was full of complaints, plus the fact it was a port over. I fancy the 757 and C130, but ONLY if they are proper FSX as last time it went in the bin. :think:
