All Mindstar Aviation licenses are perpetual licenses with lifetime updates. Once you purchase a license, you own it forever and will continue to receive all future updates at no additional cost.
Each license level allows installation on multiple aircraft as specified. You can install and uninstall the software as many times as needed on the allowed number of aircraft.
All license levels include email support. Advanced and Professional editions receive priority support with faster response times. Professional edition users also have access to direct communication channels with our development team.
For simulator manufacturers bundling our software into a retail simulator, the price for both Advanced and Professional licenses is based on a percentage of the full retail price of the simulation device in which they are being bundled or used. In addition to the percentage calculation, each edition has a "minimum licensing price" in effect regardless of the simulator's retail price. Use the pricing calculator to help estimate your cost. For additional information about bundling into retail simulators, contact us.
Customers seeking governmental certification of any kind for their simulator, in any country, must purchase a Professional license. You must also comply with certain additional regulatory and contractual requirements as described in our professional license agreement. Contact us for Professional Licenses.
