Got the demo and of course it does not work. Why put out a demo that does not work to try to sell an expensive product?

They have not updated their schedules since 2013 so I reckon further development is dead. MyTraffic is however quite recent by comparison.

To echo Naismith's comment, My Traffic is a great addon, updated almost annually with updated AI traffic files and liveries. I have been a previous owner of Ultimate Traffic and while it loaded into FSX a bit easier than My Traffic X, it was their customer service where questions were almost always answered by the developer personally and within 24 hours or less and regular traffic updates that kept me with him.

It's a great product and would look no where else.

I am a UT2 user. It's nice in that most of the models look good, fairly easy on the frame rates, and the commercial aircraft fly routes, not straight lines from departure to destination. Unfortunately, UT2 development stopped several years ago. Aside from time table updates, there has been no further development and the developers have disappeared.

I use UT2. Yes, they do not update it, but who actually sits around their sim and goes, " American 573 is running late"! I like the ease of use that UT2 offers. I tried Traffic 360, and now have it on the shelf. Don't like it at all. My 2 cents.

I also use UT2. Though the core program us no longer updated, with use of their "PowerPack" feature, you actually have a fairly robust tool to keep most (or ALL, at your leisure) of your AI models updated, and your flightplans current. I have almost exclusively Aardvark, FAIB, TFS, AIM, AIG, DWAI, & EVAI models in my sim, along with Summer 2015 flightplans - mostly AIG. It also has a very powerful way to manage multiple repaints for a given Airline, that has a lot of "logo-jets" (WN), or in fleet-wide repaint effort (AAL).

I have it also.
I like the fact, when I purchased it several years ago, that all of the AI planes textures are DirectX 10 Preview compliant.
I had always liked DirectX 10 Preview mode and now am a Steve's DX10SceneryFixer user.
In closing UT 2 states that it's AI planes will use the "jet ways" of default FSX airports., but I have seen an occasional anomaly!

Me! But only when testing the parking assignments that I have set up at airports. :mixed-smiley-010:
