Clearly, from this second table, we see that FS9 only products are still dynamic...
The score of the first half of 2011 is impressive with 19 sceneries launched for FS9+FSX
and 32 (!) for FSX alone.





How we build this market zoom  :
As usual, our purpose here is not to count all products released but just the relevant payware sceneries (15 euros/20 US $ minimum). We are not including meshs, photos sceneries, upgrades or  because these products can mislead the numbers (the volume is changing a lot).
Our only sources are products released on Simmarket, Orbx and Fsdreamteam.
