Holy.... S...ugar

I just found out that my FS9 is a whopping 15.1 GB of HD space  :o
Is this normal?!

Ha ha ha ha! So Naive  ;D

No, it's not normal, because mine is 85GB! And I know I'm not the only one with one this big, mine pales in comparison to the real simmers out there....

Mine is still ONLY 20Gb and some, but still growing. ;)

Mine is a cool 20.0 GB, which is the largest it's ever gotten. I try to keep it as light as I can, so that my HD can have some breathing room (something I decided to do after almost filling up the HD on my old computer).

Ah! Ah! I'm well under 6 GB. That's all I need, since I seldom fly outside Italy and I only use a couple of planes.  :)
