Not sure if this is the correct forum, feel free to move it, however;

In the bargin bucket this morning at a electro supermarket, I got for €5, X-Plane version 6. I have not loaded it yet. Is it a bargin, or not worth it? Is there a really big difference between version 6 and the present version 8?

For €5 I thought it was worth the cash just to find out.

Thanks

Matt

Not sure, as I only have v.7 but I'm sure it can't be that different. I like it for the scenarios. They're pretty neat. Smiley I like it. Worth €5.

Whilst accuracy wise v8 is better the graphics of the model aren't all that much better. For pretty fly FS. For mastering flying fly X-Plane Wink

I have v8 as well. After that I upgraded it with the global scenery [comes in DVDs]. The DVDs costed me only $40 as an upgrade for my v8 but that was a limited-time offer a long time ago.
