Nothing gets by my ha, ha. I di not do enough research before making my move and hoodwinked again but for anyone interested the Dove game active sky is somewhat different the the HiFi addition. Here is what i found if anyone is interested.

This version will not work with P3D and also does not have network setup capabilities.
You will need to purchase a standard version of Active Sky Next in order to use it with P3D.
