purchase another licence in order for it to run in both Sims.

You can use the same license, but you'll need to download the P3D V4 installer from the FSDreamteam website since FSX is a 32-bit program and P3D is a 64-bit program.

Thanks for that Kevin,i understand that i will have to download the new installer.
Big thanks to FSDT for not charging to upgrade along with a few other developers,
But there is still a few major developers that charge to upgrade and ill be staying
well away from them in the future.

With Thanks,

Gary Jones.

Usually with sceneries, you don't run into this issue. It's the planes that usually have FSX and P3D as separate licenses.

Your quite right there Kevin most if not all of the sceneries are a free upgrade.
Out of all the big guns in plane development there is only 1 that is offering a
discounted upgrade,the rest expect you to repurchase the item again,needless
to say i will not be paying twice for the same item.Thanks again Kevin.
