I know that no-one here would be fooled by this but I think this piece of product branding at Amazon is a disgrace....
"Flight Simulator 2020 X DELUXE Edition Flight Sim FlightGear 6 Disc DVD CD Set For Microsoft Windows 10 8 7 Vista PC & Mac OS X - 600+ Aircraft & FULL Worldwide Scenery! by PixelClassics"

That's been going on for years. It is a most blatant rip off.
Plain and simple theft!
:banghead:
Lol.. Funny.
Well, the advert does say FlightGear, it is a flight simulator, and the 2020 is a community thumbsucked name, originally created by the guys at Avsim, and is not used by either ASOBO nor Microsoft.
Not really misleading at all, apart from the longstanding Flightgear ripoff.
The FlightGear ripoff returns. This is like a bad movie that ends up getting a dozen sequels.
You are going to be surprised about this one day soon... :loyal:Quote:

It clearly states that it is FlightGear & NOTE>>> This is NOT a Microsoft Flight Simulator. This a Flight Simulator 'FlightGear' as advertised.& comes with manuals etc as well as 600+ aircraft...
Yes, we all know that FlightGear is free, & this has not got anything to do with Microsoft Flight Simulator.
BTW.. FS2020 is the official mane for Farm Simulator 2020.. (just saying)

It most certainly IS a scam, but because FlightGear is open source they can't take legal action against anyone who tries to sell it. All they can do is ask online retailers & auction sites to remove the product from their listings.
