I completely agree with you, superrob. My reaction was the same as yours. I uninstalled the aircraft.
Would someone please answer the below question? Do both the nagging popup and the nagging message within ATIS go away if one of the livery packs is installed? Dan |

To prevent advertisement pop up DO THIS:
-click START on your monitor screen ( left, bottom corner ) -click ALL PROGRAMs -click JUST FLIGHT -click 757 JETLINER You will see MANUAL for 757 jetliner and many advertisement internet SHORTCUTs. Delete everything not related to the aircraft EXCEPT MANUAL. Check your document library as well. -click START -click DOCUMENTS -double click on Flight Simulator X files and you will see few files for 757 jetliner.DO NOT DELETE this files: JFBoeing_NavData and JFBoeing_FlightPlans. But if you see any other files - remove or delete them. Advertisement will not appear any more. 757 jetliner is a very good aircraft, extra livery is great and not expensive, but it is a good idea to buy and install them one by one, you will NOT get any problem !!! I do not like combo pack here. Alex. |

Sounds like we won't make any more free planes then... Sorry to have upset you by letting you know that there were additional items that could be purchased to further your enjoyment of the aircraft.

The messages go away as soon as you have purchased anything for the 757.

For a free 757 and £1.00 per livery why complain? It's a bargain and IMHO good marketing. You can sample the product before you part with your hard earned £/$s.

Simon, I wasn't upset about being informed that additional items could be purchased. I was troubled by the fact that there was no accompanying statement that the messages would go away after a purchase had been made. This is the first time I have read what is commonly referred to as a "nag screen" without seeing a statement that the messages would go away upon making a purchase. That led me to think the possibility existed that the messages would not go away. I actually agree with hifly that the Freemium is good marketing. I think the marketing would be improved by letting people know that the messages will go away upon purchasing and installing a livery pack.
Thank you very much, Rich. That is precisely the information I needed in order to make an informed buying decision. I think your reply will boost sales. Dan |

I agree and a bit surprised it doesn't say that already. We'll get Rich to update it. Thanks.

Thank you Rick!!!
If I knew about it early, I could install extra livery pack right away, without any long way around. Thank you again. Alex |

I don't mean to pry Rich but are there any more Freemiums in the pipeline?

After previously uninstalling the 757 Freemium due to its "nag" screens, I have downloaded and installed the 757, again. Apparently, Just Flight has responded to complaints by removing the nag screens, since I am no longer experiencing any of them after the most recent install. I should mention, in case it made a difference, that when the installation process asked if I wanted to see additional liveries that are available, I answered "no."
