I have AFPD and it is AWESOME, worth every penny if you ask me and ALOT of other people, there are over 600+ free downloadable airplanes along all over the web. I would personally stay a few miles away from G3, there is a several page thread in the Rc sim section about ALOT of people saying that they wish they had never bought it. I have read some stuff too that said that some LHS's are selling all there G3's back because they were to way to horrible to sell. I think if you ask any good 3D pilot that flys sims he will say AFPD.
