Agree. The 90s-era UI is the #1 reason why I couldn’t use P2A (or PF3). I’m just glad he offers a demo to try and appreciate at least the dev seems to be active in updates. FSHud shows a lot of promise but still behind the other solutions in terms of features. No demo for that though.
It’s odd how most of the 3rd party ATC programs seem to be lone developers so don’t have the resources to update UI/websites, etc. Pro-atc/sr (the one I’ve been using for 4+ months) is still what I use when not using default ATC but has the worst dev support/updates. No clear solution still imo.
