Hey all, I purchased Abacus's Flight Deck 4 add-on today from Fry's for use with FS2004. I installed it and only have had problem after problem with it.

Shoot,I had a feeling it was something like that

I don't understand why I have these problems, because none of the reviews mention anything at all similar to these things.

None of the reviews mentioned anything like that because they didn't happen to the reviewers.  As a member of the FD4 test team, I did have some glitches in some of the beta releases, but they were identified and corrected before release.

Flight Deck 4 is one of Abacus'  best sellers, and problems like yours are not the norm.  I seriously suggest that you e-mail Abacus Tech Support on this - presuming you did get FD4 from a reputable outlet.

I know it's not nice to knock a particular developer but I have also had bad experiences with Abacus products, not only with installing but with general poor quality of the aircraft and therefore will not be purchasing any more in future. Instead I will stick with developers that produce reliable, quality aircraft.

If you check you will see plenty of other posts from users not happy with Abacus.

I think it's important for developers like Abacus to read posts on this site about their products (yes I know some of them are from people who can't read the manual) but a regular reader of posts here will soon find out which are the best and worst payware add-ons.

Layne, you must understand, Abacus are not a team of twelve people sitting in one office making add-ons. Each add-on, is individually designed, and as such, the quality goes up and down all the time. I find FSDS and the later Flight Deck add-ons to be excellent. You are just blindly hating Abacus with no (apparent reason).

Joberrick, make sure you're fuel is under about, 30% before landing. Should stop you from falling through the deck.  ;)

I have flight deck four and i cant say i have had your problems..its worked well for me and always has done then only bad this is the hit on FPS but in all..its great..

[Felix/FFDS]

took it a bit harsh hey

Well, considering that the F6F Hellcat in WW2 Carrier Ops is my basic model.....    Of course, now that you know that, you will agree that that is the absolute best Hellcat model ever released for any flightsim version, right?
