I notice my entire thread with over 1000 views has been deleted, it's ok guys I'll start a new one.

What justifies this being a $134 plane? You can't just make this go away by continually deleting responses.

None of that justifies the price of $134 for this plane. When you compare it to add ons in the same range. I don't know who you guys think you're kidding.

We are sorry to hear that. Then probably the 767 Captain II is not for you, unfortunately.

BTW, very impressive reading speed. 740 pages in 5 minutes!

We fly the plane, not the manual. Your manual can have as many pages as you want it to have. I can find a 767 FCOM, FCTM and QRH through a simple google search and spend my free time reading those. What does your hard product have to show for the price tag?

I am assuming they mean everything in the manual is simulated. So have you tried/checked so you can prove your claims?

Thank you for your interest in our products.
The 767 Captain II Manual is not a 767 FCOM from the Internet. It's a thorough description of the products' features.
Please read the Manual before purchase to make sure that the product meets you expectations.

Well aren't you pushy.

These developers made a product which felt would satisfy the market and deliver the results with the price they asked. It isn't you nor any of the other bleeding-heart keyboard warriors to determine how much they should charge for their product. Imagine you worked your heart out on a product and wanted to make a decent return on investment, you wouldn't want someone coming along arrogantly gawking that it should be cheaper because I feel it should? Criticism is valid but when it comes to putting bread on the table for this team they should charge what they feel. Keep in mind these folks' products are in Prepar3D by DEFAULT, I think there's a reason, they've been around awhile.

I have never seen such a bunch of whiny pansy-asses in my life.  Let's see, you hate the price, hate the product, but can't seem to move yourselves away from this forum. You act as if they may change their minds about the pricing because you dumb nuts demand it.  Look, it's $99, not $135 right now.  At that price, it's worth it.  If you can't afford it, move along and wait for your sharklets to come out.  Oh wait, that is going to be an extra charge too, which makes the total FS Airbus package probably cost about $300 when it is all said and done.  Like Captain Sim said in an earlier post, maybe this product just isn't for you.

Very well said.  No one has a right to complain about the price of a payware addon.  If you can't justify owning it, then don't buy it.  No one is twisting your arm!
I love this 767 and I appreciate getting it at the price that it is right now. I don't believe it is overpriced at all.

I've read majority of those posts, and you would be kidding yourself if you think those were constructive criticism. The above 3 commentators summarize the whole situation nicely.
