Title: Commercial licence of your airports?
Post by: Jedi928 on August 17, 2014, 10:33:31 am: Hello,

I have a friend who plan to open a commercial professionnal simulator and i would like to know if you have a commercial licence for each of your airports or not? If not is it allowed to install those airports on the simulator buying them with normal procedure?

Thanks for your answer.

Which means, basically, if you want to use them in a commercial simulator operated by you, it's ok (of course you'll have to use P3D too), but if you create a commercial simulator, and sell it to a 3rd party with our products included as part of the package, that's against our license. Your customer in that case will have to purchase a normal license for our products under his own name.

We also have a Volume license, with discounts for users with networked PCs, but it can purchased only by single users running the sim on the same network, so they have more activations. The Volume License cannot be used to resell the license or to give it away, so it's NOT ok to purchase in bulk at a discount, and resell to 3rd parties and it's also not ok to purchase at Volume discount and share the installation between members of a Flight Club, Virtual Airline, School, Friends, etc...
