Dang it... I was buying some more planes from Simmarket.com (Carenado Mentor and Cessna 210, and Flight1 Cessna 421).  And failed to notice until after I confirmed my order, that you cannot purchase a Flight1 product for direct download from Simmarket... so, I paid an extra freakin' $11 for this plane that may not even get here for another month due to being shipped from the UK!

I went back and it does say that in order to buy the direct download, you have to go to flight1.com... but man, they could have made it a bit more obvious for goofs like me. 

So, if you evers hop at simmarket.com and you want some Flight1 planes... order FROM FLIGHT1.COM! haha, unless you wanna wait up to 28 days for the CD. 

(BTW those Carenado planes are SA-WEET!  Although it'd be nice to offer more than 2 skins. lol)  Roll Eyes

I was Just wondering that...
.. I have made about 3 direct download purchases from Flight 1 over the year, am i LEGALLY allowed to back-up my downloads to a disk for my own use?

- Thanks.

Yes you can that is the first thing i do after installing and verifying that the download went flawlessly Wink And if i recall Flight1 recommends this on thier site and in the EULA
I have a back up of every purchase.
That and Flight1 has a unique way of doing it if you were to re-install something you must be connected to the internet to verify the copy of the software,
