Hello all!

I just wanted all to know this will be the only forum to get information from Cr1. Simviation has always been respectful of me and my add on's, they have always promptly made them ready for the public to use. Pete and CO. have always been very good to deal with.

So for the 1st serious or kinda serious post here on behalf of Cr1 here we go.

I have in the past been payware and freeware, both equally. Lately more freeware. Cr1 is now 50% freeware and 50% payware. The model I am using is this.
There will be a free version of every add on I make. It will be posted on my site as well as here at Simviation. I know payware to a lot of folks is a bad word, and I understand your feelings, trust me I really do and I respect that.
The way Cr1 is going to work and is already working is like this: Every payware add on will be released in a earlier Beta for freeware, and it wont be junk either. It will also stay as freeware forever. The payware version will only sell for $7.00 Usd and will include a huge amount more of materials, sounds, custom gauges and many other things to make it worth the investment. The reason I need to do this is because of the costs incurred to develop the new add on at the level I want to go with them and the cost of the new Cr1 web site administration and hosting fees.
My add on's will never cost more the $7.00 Usd per add on, but like for instance the Beech 18 and Beech 17... I will bundle them both for 14 dollars but separately you will only pay 7 dollars for each one. They will be posted as single releases as well as bundles.
In doing things this way I can get out to you folks some top shelf stuff for free or for a very low cost what ever you prefer, and I can enjoy the Hobby with out incurring too many costs of operation.

Take care

No problem.
Actually I get a lot of good times out of this and some times when I fly on line and see one of my planes out there being enjoyed by some one else I feel good!

Cheers.

Yes, thank you very much. I downloaded the freeware P-39D and it is extremely nice.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

nice planes, I been trying to find a good P39, and I really like how yours looks!! great job! definatly worth my $7 when I get enough set aside for all the christmas shopping i got (hell I may even buy a few for Christmas) although I tried to search for the freeware one you made, but all I get are CFS planes, not flight sim X planes, or an i searching the wrong string?

Hi there, thanks for checking out my site sand my older mods. Nothing is ready for sale right now, I'm looking at Feb/2010 for release of the beech 18 as pay ware, right now all there is are my free planes. Sorry about that, going as fast as I can.

All of the mods I have on the site right now are all of my older projects that are actually completed.
I have around 35 sitting here that I'm going to systematically go through and finish off for fs9 mainly but I will convert them to work well in fsx.

The planes you see there span from the year 2001 to 2004.
At that time that was as much as I could do to them and keep them running well on the systems of the time.
The Beech 18 and the Beech 17 and the Spad were never finished properly to my satisfaction so they are being finished properly now.
All of the others I'm taking to a new level for fs9 and fsx.

The P 39 for instance is one I'm looking forward to working on as its a pretty cool plane. It will be up to the standards of the new Wings of Power P 51 and most likely over that quality level.

Thanks guys! Cool
