Actually, I didn't want to buy this tool because I already have another one from a competitor on Simmarket. But after watching the preview video, I decided to buy it after all, and I'm happy with it. It’s easier to use, and you can click on any aircraft to view it. It’s as if you were standing next to the aircraft, walking or driving past it. This is exactly what I was looking for. Now I can finally create my own videos of aircraft and more.
