Let me guess ... this has turned into another one of those FS9 vs. FSX "Yet Another Pointless Discussions" .... :D You FS9 guys really love to argue your point endlessly ... Are any of you lawyers?  I could use another good lawyer.  :-?

Such a childish remark James! Never in the history of Flight Simulator and I should know ( I've been using it since it;s inception),  has there been such a lack of customer support in the community and by developers (Captain Sim in this case but not necessarily the only one....there are a few others)  Over the last 4-5 years that I migrated to FS9 (I always upgraded to a newer version of FS) I have spent Thousands...yes literary thousands of dollars on products from many developers (Scenery and Aircraft) for my Sim... And I don't like FSX!!!! And,  where in the past it has never been a problem because developers continued to make aircraft that worked in both the newer version of the Sim and the previous, they have now suddenly decided not to do it....WHY?

Are you trying to insinuate that because you have chosen to use FSX that the entire Universe has to follow in your foot steps? The fact you don't seem to understand is, that there are tens of thousands of users who regardless of what you and those like minded people out there think regarding FSX....It was and continues to be a disappointing version of FS that did not meet expectations and not worth throwing my hard earned money away for....

Most of those that speak so highly of FSX are first time simmers or never really invested in any previous Flight Sim, thus making it easier to switch. I can see that for those that have moved over to the slide show are happy and I'm more the happier for it. Especially those that claim that 10-15 frames is smooth ( full scenery 'another company' 747 at 'FSDT' KJFK with all the traffic in the world and 33FPS...Now that's smooth and something you can actually enjoy a 6 hour flight on) ....But that is no reason to put anyone down for suggesting a FS9 version of a particular product, especially if they are customers!!

Anyways, since I get the 'News letter' from CS whenever something new is released....I would like to ask....Will you be releasing a CS 727 (the updated version) and the new 767 for your very loyal yet reluctant FS9 customers?
