The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about PFPX Flight Planning.
- The Internet Archive's capture of pfpx.com on 7 December 2018 carried the vendor's own notice that 'The URL of the PFPX homepage has changed to www.flightsimsoft.com'; the 2021 capture of flightsimsoft.com confirms PFPX (Professional Flight Planner X) is sold by FSS GmbH alongside a second product, TOPCAT, though the linked Pricing page was not itself archived.
