Thanks for that. Reason I ask - bought their Piper Saratoga thinking to use it to learn something about glass panel IFR but, it's so obviously a makeshift conversion for FSX and very poorly done, I'm leaning towards requesting a refund.

I bought the Pilatus Porter a longer time ago. But as it is also an FS9 conversion I had some issues with textures and finally deleted the aircraft again. Overall I found it appart from my issues not bad for an FS9 conversion, but a bit overpriced.

Edit: I am not a huge fan of glass cockpits, but I find the Lionheart Quest Kodiak and the IRIS DA 40 rather nice (The IRIS DA 42 Twinstar has some issues with the flight model. I am not sure if they are resolved now).

Another case of 'caveat emptor', I think. The price was the lure and, of course, it sounded perfect so am now involved in an e-mail discussion with them. Fairly one-sided so far
