Is it complicated to use? It looks interesting, but i'm not sure if I want to get into something so complicated.

Is it hard to actually make a profit on jobs?

Do you have be online while flying a job?

I think you'll have to be connected the whole time.

Usually you can repay your loan after one flight (just go somewhere the weather is bad and fly at night)

It is kind of the precursor to FSPassengers.

It's a freeware alternitive to FSPassengers. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles of FSP and you have to be connected to the internet when using.

I tried it when it first came out. Was a little buggy then but that was some time ago and those problems are likely worked out by now. For what it was supposed to do it worked great but had some stability problems. Probably works OK now.

FSP adds a lot of stuff FS Economy doesn't but of course it's $$payware$$. FSP has a free trial limited to a couple airports for departure point. You might want to get both and try them out side by side and see which one suites you best.
