Latest update released is V1.02A for FSX and P3D. As always, remember to back up your liveries, cfgs and routes and other changes you may have made, as they will all be gone if you do not!
Also beware if you have the control panel pinned anywhere. You will need to delete this one and use the new one with the latest update. Otherwise you will effectively be running two control panels. For example, if you are having difficulty changing the new CP to KGs, it maybe the Simulator is defaulting to the original CP. Hope that makes sense.

Best

Keith

You might have to go to the retailer you bought it from. I had to get mine from Just Flight

Yes, come to think of it, that's what I've done before. And my reseller PC Aviator is a bit slower with patches than most of the others. But patience is a virtue.
