Just to be sure: v2 or v3 with P3D 2.0

I reinstalled my entire PC and now only have P3D 2.0 running.

1. I understand that v2, which I always kept on using, doesn't work anymore. If that is so: it seems v3 does still work and will do so in the foreseeable future? In that case I won't install v2 (I like to keep my system clean) and go to v3 directly.

2. Is the information in this topic http://www.tasoftware.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=1755.0 applicable to P3D 2.0? Since I don't have FSX installed (and don't have a backup of the old database) I really need the option to create a new database! If v3 is not compatible with P3D 2.0, I will have to look for another planner. Plan-G is the best for VFR so I would like to keep on using it!

EDIT
In case it might make a difference: I ONLY use Plan-G to create plans: after creating and saving them, I quite Plan-G and start my sim. So I don't need Plan-G to be connected with P3D 2.0: I only need to be able to create a database and after that to create and save plans.

EDIT 2
So I decided to give it a try and yes, it works! But... I can't save the plans as PLN for FSX/P3D!!! Is there anyway I can enable that option? Without an option to save the plan as an PLN, it's not much use, of course.  ;)

1. V3 is fully supported and maintained. V2 and earlier have been archived for more than a year.
2. As far as I'm aware. I don't have P3D 2.0, but nobody has come along and said it doesn't work.
3. EXPORT.
