Why does the 767 for MSFS2020 simulator only cost $20, whereas the same product costs $80 for the P3D5 simulator? >:(

Because as I recall the MSFS is just a quick VC model and external model based on the default MSFS 747 systems / gauges; where the P3d version is a ground up build / coding of 767 systems and everything... But if you have the patience to wait, usually around mid to late December Captain Sim these past few years has offered an "everything for $9.99" sale (was on the 21st and 22nd respectively these past two years...) That is when I typically buy my CS stuff... I know they send out an email to let you know when they are having it..

Unfortunately, last year people complained that they recieved the email after the sale ended.
It might be worth checking the website every day from 20th Dec, to 30th Dec, so you catch the sale on the day it occurs (seeing as it not normally a specific day around Christmas that they have the sale (it has been early January a few times as well)).
