Dear Dave,

your contribution to the flightsim community in the recent 30 years is outstanding. You have always been most helpful, polite, honest, pleasant and responsive to user critics and suggestions, offering an exemplary support for your product. It has always been a joy to come to your forum.

Being a flightsimmer for some 30 years (well, support forums on the internet weren't a thing back then...) I can say that about only a handful of developers.

I have been with you on this journey for a long time. I still remember using PFE and FDC but don't even know anymore which simulator these were for . Thanks to your invitation I have been part of the development of PF3 since nearly ten years (how time flies). It has always been a great pleasure to work with you. Seeing PF3 evolve according to - among others - my suggestions in particular regarding VFR operations and the cooperation with MCE was a very nice experience.
PF3 has come a long way in the recent years and it will have its place in the flightsim community still for years to come.

Even though a time to move on might come, by all means PF3 has its prominent place in my flightsimming experience over the recent ten years - just as you will always have a place in my heart.

Enjoy your retirement age in good health!

All my best wishes!

Ralf

Dave's dedication to customer support is well known to everyone in the flight sim community, and PF3 users include a number of licensed pilots, which says quite a bit about the program. I've enjoyed helping out with testing and support and I do think PF3 will continue to be in demand because not all simmers will want or be able to use all the bells and whistles in the new program. Thank you Dave!

Hi Dave!

I have yet to really get back into the cockpit of Microsoft Download Simulator 2020 (and now they announced a 2024 version!), apart from few ATC-less local flights I still feel a bit out of place with it. It is wonderful, but it feels like having to learn everything from scratch again.

Thank you for the pointer to a good alternative to PF3 in case we want to try something new, but learning a new ATC program would even add more things to the list

And most of all: Thank you for PF3, which for me made the difference between a flying-game and a flight simulator!

I wish you all the best,
Thomas

I cannot remember how long I have been using your ATC program ,but it is many years.
Thank you Dave and enjoy your well earned retirement.
