I think it would be great to be able to search within a specific area of downloads, for instance, if I wanted to search only for FS9 planes, then I could select that option from a dropdown menu. Or if I wanted scenery for a specific place, then I could select wich version of FS I need it for, and so on.

I think you're being a tad picky there, Hybrid... Roll Eyes

Most results are grouped by age, so if you wanted 04, they'd be on top Wink

Pete explained in a previous thread on this subject that a selective search feature, like they have on some other FS sites, is not possible with the way the site is set up. The search feature we have now is a great improvement on the original one.

It also helps if you type in 'fs2004 whatever' .... but also bare in mind a LOT of stuff is intercompatible so if you were selective on a database you would often get zero results on a fs2004 search even thou an aircraft was perfectly compatible with it .... for example ...

The search facility is always under scrutiny with improvements in mind

Think Global. It's the world we live in.
