Kuky Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 120 aircraft... and they claim "most realistic flight simulator ever"...

Lixma 06 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 That site looks about as trustworthy as Amway.

Lixma 06 Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 The Truth Behind ProFlight Simulator And Flight Pro Sim It's back...now as ProFlight Simulator (www.proflightsimulator.com). Last year when we first heard about Flight Pro Sim (flightprosim.com) we were excited to think there was a new sim available. However, some research determined that this is nothing more than a boxed version of the well known and long available Flight Gear open source simulator. While there's nothing illegal about any of this, if you want Flight Gear you can download it for free from the Flight Gear web site (www.flightgear.org). http://www.flightsim.com/
airea Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 There is even a paraglider:) Would be really boring to fly a paraglider on pc:)
Boberro Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 120 aircrafts = HAWX^100 = :megalol: :lol: "The Best Flight Simulation Game Ever Created!" :rotflmao: Reminder: Fighter pilots make movies. Bomber pilots make... HISTORY! :D | Also to be remembered: FRENCH TANKS HAVE ONE GEAR FORWARD AND FIVE BACKWARD :D ಠ_ಠ ツ
GGTharos Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 How disingenious and down-right dishonest. I haven't checked out the other two packages, but for a 'limited time offer' he's throwing in 'Aeron for free' ... Aeron is GPL, and is free to get one way or another.

swift Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 Yeah, it's a Flight Gear rip-off scam. And seems like is fishing some fellow simmers.
element1108 Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 I cannot believe this illegal type of distribution has not been shut down yet, WTF is going on here.
Steel Jaw Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 And seems like is fishing some fellow simmers. If so, then that is e-Darwinism in action. Someone needs to report the fecker, not even a contact email or address within the site.

Well, as laughable as it may seems, technically it's not illegal. Flight Gear is released under GPL license, and you can sell GPL software as long as you offer to provide source code. Isn't cruel the e-Darwinism?
element1108 Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 That is cruel, that is cruel indeed. I guess the best we can do to combat it is spread the word of it's corruption. Sorry for the fellas who bought it this way though, lesson learned and at least hopefully they can have some fun with the product.
