While we are pondering Dovetail or X-plane, have you seen this?

Not seen that one, although I see it is withdrawn from sale for a few days whilst they fix some issues.  

Tbh, my main problem at the moment is VAS (or lack thereof).  Once you get the addons to make FSX looks totally sweet, you run out of memory and it crashes - this is in a nutshell why I am interested in XP11 as it is 64-bit and does not suffer from the VAS problems of 32-bit software (like FSX or P3D).

Yeah, I know....

Edit; Didn't know it was not for sale anymore. I have not tried it, but it looks great.

I have tried this now and it works great.

BTW, I've had big problems with my PC lately. First my driving pedals packed in, then what I thought was a power supply failure. Then after a new PSU, I found out that it was my GPU that shorted out my whole PC. So I had to wait a little bit for a new GPU. A new GTX 1070 is installed now and working fine.
Next,  I have to save up for new pedals....

That's real bad luck Vober, hopefully you'll get back online soon with them new pedals!
