  It's like a lot of addons you soon get fed up with it........moving airstairs for example......just became a bind after three or four goes.Fine if it's freeware but not worth coughing up your hard earned readies, IMO.............commoner Wink

I dont think its a bad package... I use it and it is entertaining for a change of pace.

What you must NOT do is use the little readout display it places on your screen... that readout have fonts that cause FS9 frames to drop like a rock. If you get it and use it, make sure you right click and close the display.

You can use it in its full version as a trial.. the only restriction is you must fly out of KSFO

I think its a great addon for FS, what other software actually effects your whole flying experience so much? If you think its a rip off, don't buy it. I think alot of addons are a waste of money. Take the captinsim 727, I wouldn't pay 32 Euro's for it, purely because it doesn't interest me. It doesn't stop if from being one of the best addons for FS. Lots of people put time effort, and lots of money into devoloping addons for us regular simmers, and in the case of FSPassengers, it was one, one man, and a year of work, the guys gotta make a living. So go get the demo, if your still not impressed, don't buy the damn thing. Just don't call it a waste of money.

Like Ashar said, the screaming passengers are worth it!

Ok well let me assure you that I think its a good upgarde and never once asked you all to comment on how CRAP it was, if you read the poll properly you would have noticed that, I am simply asking for  everyone else's opinion on this piece of software.

Thank you commoner for your insights.

Doesn't cause any problems for me...

FS Passengers adds a sense of purpose to your flights and in some ways makes you more efficient as a virtual pilot. I think it's well worth the money  Smiley

Personally, I think it's useless  Grin Fighter jets can't fit more than one (or two, or four in some cases) people anyways  Wink

Great payware. I use it for every flight. For me, definitely worth the money. I hope it's compatible with FSX (when FSX comes out).

Try the trial version. The only restriction is flying out of KSFO so that's no so bad.
