Captain Sim one-day sale is back

[Norberto Rivera]

I don't get any commissions but CS has all but 2 titles for 9.99 euros again. 24 hours only so take advantage! http://www.captainsim.com

On second thought, what a bunch of crap! Most of the expansion packs are 9.99. The base packs are still 29.99 and up. Big fail Captain Sim!

Duh! LOL

Is the 757 going to be on sale? Is it worth even buying?

ABSOLUTELY...! Especially for 9.99 Euros!

I have it and love it... I'm hoping they put their 707 Captain on sale! If they do IT'S MINE!

Thanks, good to know Robert. One question though, I was reading the AVSIM review for it, and it says something about different blocks. How many of these blocks do I need to buy? How expensive will they be? Will these different blocks be 9.99 Euros, or less? Thanks guys!

Bert,

They don't use the 'block' system anymore as far as I know (GLADLY, it was more complicated than it was worth, it seemed.)... It's just the base package and the expansion packs. The base package gets you the complete 757-200. Then you can buy the -300 expansion pack and the cargo expansion pack if you like. Same thing with the 727 and 767.
Just note that as Bert R mentioned, the expansion packs are ALWAYS 9.99. So put your money towards getting the base packages and then save up and buy the expansion packs later after the sale is over!

Bert,

Just the base pack is what you need. Don't pay any attention to the block F. That block is for when the 757 first came out as multiple blocks. It is for backwards additions I think. If you look at the specs for the 757 Base Pack you'll see that the FMS is included in there.

So just go get the base pack (and one of the expansions if you want), don't worry about the Block F module...

Oh well...

The 707 won't be 9.99, but they did say they would reduce it to 24.99 and the B-52 to 19.99... Might still be tempting enough for me to get the 707.

Thanks, Robert. I was thinking of picking up the B-52 "Driver", but, from reading the forums, it's mostly eye-candy and the FDE needs some serious work (unless you think a B-52 accelerates and climbs like a F-104). It's not worth $19.99 to me. $9.99, maybe, but not $19.99.
