Ok I understand...
But, I feel little disappointed...
In the products section of the website is absolutely not clear the v2.0 version is only for fsx! Good marketing operation!
Also in support forum is not simple to find any news about this item...
Anyway... I will wait patiently.

It's not true the 2.0 version is only for FSX: it was clearly announced (back in June) the 2.0 update would be made in 3 steps.

As already explained in the thread I've linked before, which I'll repeat it again, the 1st step that has been released now, includes almost exclusively things that FS9 doesn't support, like ParkMe, YouControl menus, better Bump-mapping textures, better AFCAD (the "better" AFCAD is *derived* from the *current* FS9 version!!) and less FS9 code to improve FSX performances.

IF we made a "marketing operation", we could simply rename the FS9 installer as "2.0", but it wouldn't look very different...

The 2nd step of the upgrade, instead, will feature a new Terminal B, and WILL be available for FS9 too.
