Are they the same or different

Wilco offers a 737 PIC for FSX

Just Flight offers a 737 PIC for FSX and Vista

Are they the same product being sold through different retailers?

IF NOT, then I know one of them is considered to cause registry problems in FSX.  Does anyone know if it is one or the other, or both, or is the problem fixed.

There is no good add-on 737 at the moment, and I would like to have one in my stable - but not to stuff up the game!

Just Flight is a publisher. ;) They may have optimised it for Vista.

Its the same one but you have to make sure you get the Vista version if thats what you`re running.  You pay for the FSX version then pay for the Vista upgrade (which I disagree with).  However, you can offset this by joining the discount scheme.  You get 500 points straightaway for joining (

Many thanks Reider for such a comprehensive reply.  

I have discovered that I have the Wilco version on disk for FS2004.

I presume that I can buy the upgrade for FSX/Vista in one hit.  I will certainly look at the alternative weather radar that you suggest,

I have tended to avoid add-on gauges as I find getting the sizing right difficult and end up with an out-of-scale instrument.  Obviously others seem to be able to do it regularly and accurately.
