Black Friday 2022: post your deals!

FSHud Air Traffic Control is on sale for $27.96 (regular price: $34.95)
https://www.flight1.com/products.asp?vid=flt1sf&pid=fshudv1

TLDR - Contrail has 109 sales up to 40%. (Edit - there are actually more sales. I just noticed it doesnā€™t show sales on items I already own and I own a lot!).

Iā€™ve been using a program for years now called ā€œContrailā€. I canā€™t remember which developer whoā€™s airport I bought that pushed me into downloading it to download my purchase, but itā€™s a great program to have. Basically, like Orbx has their Orbx Central and now also sells 3rd party addons, so does Contrail, but has a much larger group of developers, like LVFR, FlyTampa, etc. All the good ones :slight_smile:

Anywho, if you have that you will have access to the Black Friday sales (since yesterday to the 29th). There are currently 109 sales on it, from airports, aircraft and other addons. You can also link your accounts to a lot of other accounts, like who Iā€™ve mentioned and others like VerticalSim, Just Flight, Flightbeam, etc (too many to list). Makes updating very easy and you get them as soon as the developers release them.

If you prefer to only buy via the market place, it will at least show you what theyā€™ll most likely soon have on sale tomorrow.

That really is incredible. Pity I bought the Bravo to replace my 12-year-old ā€˜spikeyā€™ Saitek throttles about a month ago at the normal asking price! Would never have expected such a price drop on the UK market any time soonā€¦ ah well! :grimacing:

From another thread, and maybe not Black Friday specific, the FSW Cessna 414A has $10 off currently:

Considering Offshore Landmarks: North Sea has just been released, I think there is no better time to get HPGā€™s H145. Great deals on their site. I just picked up all 3; the base pack, action pack and hot air balloon at a really nice discount.

Look at this little jewell:

Itā€™s almost perfect, compact with most of all functionsā€¦ It would be an instant buyā€¦ but $60 for shipment cost to EU is sadly too much (and customs, taxes, etcā€¦)

Do you know something similar in the same price range in EU?

All Rex Simulations products are 30% off until Cyber Monday: https://store.rexdownload.com/

  • AccuSeason: $17.47 (reg. $24.95)
  • Weather Force: $15.37 (reg. $21.95)
  • Real Global Airport Textures: $12.57 (reg. $17.95)

Thanks for posting :+1:

I have 2 cheaper (though very good value) saitek throttle quadrants so might replace these with the Honeycombe quadrant at this price. I suspect (hope) these will be of much higher quality.

Cheers :+1:

A post was merged into an existing topic: No Black Friday sale?

The GNS is marked down 60$ today.

Those the ones, that are PC only or console and pc?

They are far better. I had the Saitek/Logitech quadrants too at one point. The noise on the potentiometers was awful. I donā€™t get any of that with the Honeycomb.

I am strictly a PC guy so I can only speak for the PC. I have no idea what works with the console tbh.

I have to say, what an incredibly underwhelming list of offerings from the MSFS Store.

I have found nice payware aircraft from other retailers/developers that are BF specials that are not on MSFS. Here are some great deals on highly regarded aircraft:
*reposts of others who have already may have mentioned one of these is not intentional, these are simply aircraft Iā€™m after.

SIMWARE STUDIOS KODIAK 100
$20.00

AEROSOFT DHC-6 TWIN OTTER
$22.00

JUSTFLIGHT ARROW III & IV COMBO
$39.00

FLYSIMWARE C414 CHANCELLOR
$30.00

Am looking at ASUS TUF Gaming Radeon RX 6800 16GB GDDR6 on NewEgg - $500, but am waffling. For the time that this card has been on the market Iā€™m not sure itā€™s really a good deal. In fact, Iā€™m underwhelmed at all the supposed ā€œdealsā€ this year on graphics cardsā€¦

Definitely slim pickings on the marketplace.

Iā€™m weak so I bought myself via Marketplace EKCH from Fly Tampa :laughing:
