'''FlightProSim''' is "One of the Most Realistic Flight Sims Available", according to its website. It is a commercial copy of [[FlightGear]] so the FlightGear developers are very happy with this compliment. FlightProSim however, is in no way (officially) related to FlightGear, apart from the fact that the first is 99% (if not more) a copy of the later.

==I bought FlightProSim, what to do?==
== Admittance ==
If you have bought FlightProSim, try to get your money back as soon as possible. You can have (almost) the same software for free nevertheless! They guarentee a 60 day money back trial periode, so this should be no problem if you react quickly.  
[http://www.flightprosim.com/ FlightProSim] openly admits, how closely their software is related to FlightGear:
*
* ''”FlightProSim™ is a FlightGear fork and has been built to be as close to real life as possible. Everything from terrain, aircraft reactions, to planetary alignments & movements.”''
* ''“You can even use all the free aircraft created from the FlightGear community.”''
* ''“Meet up online with other FlightProSim™ and FlightGear users to fly in formation, put on an air show or just to have fun. You can easily locate other pilots or yourself with Google Map integration.”''
* ''“FlightProSim™ is proudly part of the Open Source community and is based on the world renown FlightGear project. This means FlightProSim™ is in constant development and keeps getting better and better. If you require further information or want to help develop FlightProSim™ further please have a look at our Developers Area.”''


The FlightGear developers are interested in the package to see whether the package complies with the GNU GPL terms or not. Therefor we would like to receive a package for inspection. If you own a package and were unable to get your money back, please contact the developers through the [[mailing list]].

==Legal or ilegal?==
The [[GNU GPL]] license under which FlightGear is released allows reselling under certain terms. FlightGear developers have difficulties with the way FlightProSim is acting and doubt if they are acting legal. If you have any (inter)national law knowledge, please contact the developers at the [[mailing list]], they will welcome any law support.
