Ok, thank´s :)

The old FSX was not use 64-bit OS at all. Both the FSX SE and Prepar3D have the same basic platform from the old FSX. I like to start with a new platform and I find the X Plane as a good choice!

X plane use 64 bit OS as I find very usefull since I had several OOM problem in FSX. X plane is support by IVAO multiplayser network and so on :)

Some starting question:

1.) Does the X plane has addon like ATC, weather scenery and aircraft ?

2.) How is the sound handle of the x plane?

3.)  Can you co-operate in a aircraft?

1)-ATC : not needed, but you could try X-life, or X-ivap for online flight.
-weather : not needed, but you could try x-enviro
-scenery and aircraft : have you taken a look at x-plane.org? It's a good start. Or even Google.

2) it is explained on X-plane.com :

Do not expect any calculated sonic boom though.
