Thought this may be interesting

I average $40 a year if I'm lucky (I only have 3 things!)

Note money is in $NZ

seen as how i spend $450 on my Flight Sim X Deluxe, CH Products Flight Sim Yoke, and CH Rudder Pedals i will put over $100, however i do not buy any add-on aicraft or scenery that is payware.

Thats quite a general question you have asked there... what period of time does this cover? Per annum? Since you purchased your latest version of the simulator? Including or not including the price of the original software? Including hardware or only software?

Please ammend your poll with a more detailed question line.

by **graemer** » Tue Aug 28, 2007 4:57 pm

Should this include hardware as well?

sorry I meant over 1 year

Spent $100.00 as I was posting this reply. To much good stuff for FS9, need to get more into FSX, but can't quite drag myself to do it .

I think the better question might be:
"How much have you spent on your present flightsim installation?"

In which case, Ian's answer is pretty close to the mark.

by **ardypilot** » Tue Aug 28, 2007 6:00 pm

I'm pretty sure its going to be $100+ for everyone in that case.

Last year I spent about $900 on mine, excluding hardware.

Gee, about $400 for X52 + pedals last year, new graphics card = $450, more RAM = $200 etc etc. The list definately goes on...

Jeez!
I spend my money on... well I don't spend it just sits in my bank. In other words I'm good at saving. Not so good at spending.
Anyway I use flightsim because I love aviation and I want to be a pilot. It isn't really a hobby for me.

by **Mattnz** » Tue Aug 28, 2007 7:18 pm

Too much!
It would probably be in the region of around $300 in the past year.

as my computer has just unexpectedly died it will probably be some time before I can answer that question

I wait in trepidation for the diagnosis - possible motherboard failure!??

I am at work doing this at the moment but I fear that all things flightsim may have gone west for several ... months????

I feel your pain towerguy, i don't have a computer at the moment, and won't have one for a few months, so i am in the same boat, not going to stop me though!!!

Oh no! does that mean your adventure/storey temporarily/permanently ends in Africa! I woud be lost without my computer (luckily I have 3 - although only one runs FS 9 how I want it)

I have slowed my purchases right down - I had a splurge when I got my new computer with heaps of add ons but have only bought two or three add ons in the last 6 months - probably the only purchases in the next 6 months will be anything that Robin brings out and maybe one a/c.

Having great fun with freeware at the moment anyway - VOZ (finally got it loaded), AFG King Air, Carters Mustang etc etc

by **towerguy** » Wed Aug 29, 2007 9:14 am

I will try to bang together some more of the story while off air. Once I get over the withdrawal symptoms/depression/drinking/hangovers etc.

by **frostynz** » Wed Aug 29, 2007 9:15 am

Its a fine line whether I spend more on virtual a/c or real a/c ...............

by **jastheace** » Wed Aug 29, 2007 1:19 pm

well i have just spent 10 euros on the pss airbus pro package, no i don't have a puter, will have to give a report once i am set up again!! but at 10 euros i just couldn't go past it!!
