francois, Monday, 12 January 2009 @ 10:06 well, sort of….. : I am BACK!
But maybe you didn’t miss me, in that case, please skip this post and continue your download of some exciting new simMarket titles… *cough*. Both Nina and I had a severe case of the flu and we’re only now slowly recovering. At the same time both [...]
francois, Monday, 12 January 2009 @ 9:51 Yup, you read correct; more sounds. Synchro Soft is another outfit selling add-on sounds for your flightsim aircraft.

In any [...]

Ian P, Sunday, 11 January 2009 @ 12:47 Screenshotartist.co.uk are pleased to be able to present their latest review, of the A2A Simulations Boeing 377 Stratocruiser with Accu-Sim add-on.
If you haven’t met this model, and the technology advances that come with the 1950′s predecessor of the B747 and A380 double-decker airliners, or if you have, but are still undecided as to whether [...]
francois, Sunday, 11 January 2009 @ 11:41 Finally, the brand new version of Damian Clark’s Active Sky is released on simMarket.
