Not available. It has been superseded by v. 5.2 and that, in turn, by 5.2 HF1.

Unless you kept the original 5.1 downloads, you can't.

It's simply a shame. P3D could easily offer full installers of Legacy version. But somehow they just don't want to. Do you really think they don't got them saved somewhere on a server or drive? They could simply drop an install link, Im pretty sure. On the download section they recommend to use full installers only. But for legacy versions they just offer the client installer. That doesnt makes no sense.

Thank you for your help anyway, greetings! :)

When a newer version is available with fixes for known bugs in it, why then keep a version with those bugs available?
