Hello there
I am currently trying out the demo and am enjoying it. I've deliberated back and forth for a while and was on the verge of pulling the trigger, when my request to pay by credit card was met instead by a form to open a paypal account. You've probably guessed I don't pay for much online (beyond Amazon and the odd Just Flight purchase) and as I don't have or want one of these it put me off a bit and I've gone back to deliberating. Did I click the wrong button somewhere in the process? Or do you have to have a paypal account to buy FSFlyingSchool.
Also, I noticed within FSX (Steam Edition) that while running FSFlyingSchool, my ATC coms were muted leaving only the text. Does the instructors voice use the same channel as ATC so it's one or the other? Or is there a setting I need to change.
Many thanks for any advice
All the best
Badger

Hi Badger:
Many thanks for your interest in our products and for taking the time to post feedback! 
It is never the case that a customer has to open a PayPal account in order to buy our products - you can pay with any major credit card. There are two options at the payment screen.
It is sometimes the case that PayPal will see that the card chosen is associated with an existing PayPal account and in those cases PayPal will direct the buyer to use the existing account to transact the purchase.
It is also sometimes the case that PayPal payment is not available to a very small number of countries. We have no control of PayPal's policy of course.
Even then, the customer can either send us a check or pay by bank transfer if desired - in this case it is best to contact sales@FSFlyingSchool.com and describe the purchase to be made.
Customers can also ask that a specific currency is used if they prefer - the default currency is US dollars.
I hope that explains the payment process.
As for ATC in FSX or FSX-SE, your experience is a puzzle - there is usually no problem at all, and I am talking here about thousands of pilots all over the world who have been using FSFS with FSX since 2006 and FSX-SE since it was released.
You could perhaps try using a different sound card either at the FSFS settings screen or the FSX sound settings screen until the combination works. I must emphasize that this is NOT normally needed.
Finally - please make sure that the demo is working to your complete satisfaction before you purchase the product - that's the whole purpose of the free demo. 
Please let me know how you get on!

Thanks for the reply Jeff. I've sent you an (overly long) PM just now.
Badger.
