Status: offline 		Any clues as to the system requirements for the Mac version of Aerofly 5?  I can not seem to find anything but the requirements for the Windows version.  Perhaps they won't release them until March as well.  I have a freshly unboxed Mac Mini 2.26Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2 GB ram, and a Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics card 256 MB Vram.  I would wait for the March release date for the new version if I knew it would work with my system.  I suppose I would be curious to know if AFPD would work with my system.  Thanks for supporting the fruit and penguin segments of the computer world.

Status: offline 		One of the captions about Aerofly 5 on their web page says "All new flight physics", and I saw your comments about the Aerofly 5 flight physics in Post 36.

I used AFPD for a while, but switched to FS One, which has great flight physics for practicing advanced aerobatics. However, since FS One is no longer supported, I am on the lookout for an equally realistic simulator. I am hoping that Aerofly 5 will stand out in this area compared to the other simulator choices. I would appreciate any feedback about the flight realism of Aerofly 5 for advanced aerobatics.

Theres a big difference in price for the USB version vs the Upgrade. If I have AFPD I gather all I need to buy is the upgrade since I have the USB dongle?

Status: offline 		Hey rajul, I would guess that it is WAY too late to offer up my system for beta testing (nudge, nudge, wink, wink...) on Aerofly 5 for Mac.  I am only mostly joking about this one.  At least I would know if it would work or not with my system.  I would probably not be seen as a good tester in any case.  OTOH, I don't really mind supporting a company that writes good software for the Mac, I just can not really afford (or justify, for that matter) both versions.  If the release date of AF 5 was six months from now or if it would definitely not run on my system, it would be no question.  Get AFPD now and have 6 months worth of fun and practice, but one month......  (Be patient, he whispers to himself, under his breath.....)

Status: offline 		I just talked to Great Planes in Champaign, IL about the Aerofly 5 Mac upgrade and the gal had no knowledge of the upgrade and she will be talking to her product manager and buyer to get a status. I am hoping the Great Planes Distributor will order it. I remember when I purchased my Aerofly for the Mac the only place that was selling it was from the Sussex Model Centre in England. I sure hope I do not have to go through the hassle of ordering it through England again. Sussex were great guys to deal with but I had to order it at 1:00AM in the morning. Rajul I am using my DX7 with my simulator. I have a question will the patch 5 work fine with my existing Aerofly cables? Thanks let me know if you have that info.

You will need to download the latest patch and install it.

If you're getting the upgrade disk, you will need to use the same AFPD interface cable and adapter cable with AF5
