ABOUT THIS CONTENT
Put your seatbelts on and prepare for the landing of a lifetime! The first mission pack from the newly-formed mission creation team at Dovetail Games, Epic Approaches is a challenging spin on the traditional mission format.
Choose from five unique locations and work your way up through the rankings, which provide you with a clear path to mastering the approaches. Watch out, though - the harder the level, the more likely unexpected events will occur!
In addition to fifteen missions, Epic Approaches includes two exclusive new liveries for the Piper PA-46 Malibu Mirage and Piper PA-34 Seneca. Also included is a smart new uniform for your in-sim avatars which are used during the missions and is also accessible via the Pro Mission Tool, so you can include it in your own custom scenarios.
Features:
• Five approaches each containing three skill levels: Gold, Silver and Bronze
• Exclusive liveries for the PA-46 Malibu Mirage and PA-34 Seneca
• New uniform for pilot avatars which can be used in the Pro Mission Tool

If you read comments on Steam it's hard to miss those complaining about paying for add-ons to the game which is not even complete. Or is it? The last time I checked it was still in early access, so somebody's got the point...

The game is still in E.A. I understand that it seems odd to have DLC's for an ea title. However this is flight simulation and as you know there are many add-ons by third parties. So there is nothing new here. A lot of people on Steam are new to flight simulation and do not understand about add-ons for flight sims. They even went crazy about the Just Flight Piper Arrow. They need to relise that many add-ons will come. The simple solution is not to buy the add-ons we don't want. Just like we do presently in FSX/P3D/X-Plane/DCS.
FSW development will take a while. It is encouraging but because it is through Steam, third party devs will have to pay Dovetail and Steam to be able to sell their add-ons. This might put off a few devs, at least while FSW does not have a big market share.
I own FSW and like what I see so far. Only negative so far is that they only provide free GA aircraft at this point.

I don't mind GA for now because I rarely flew anything bigger than Seneca back in my FSX days. Yeah, you're right. It's easy to forget that flight simmers can be considered a niche among other gamers and developers need as much cash as possible. Currently we have Dovertail Games, Eagle Dynamics + 3rd party developers and 1C that make flight sims.
PS. I will ask you about FSW when I'm on TS.
