August 1, 200322 yr ...the improvements to GA flying. Yes, there were excellent write ups of the new GA and historical aircraft, and the improved AI and ATC options, but nothing mentioned about the new AI and ATC options for GA flying at uncontrolled airports. I'm personally more of a GA flyer, and was disappointed that little to nothing was mentioned in the AVSIM review (or any other on-line reviews I've seen so far, for that matter) about the many improvements in GA flight that FS2004 is supposed to have implemented. For example, AI traffic is now supposed to be able to fly into and out of uncontrolled airports. Seeing as this is an entirely new feature, I'm surprised apparently nobody on the AVSIM staff has looked into this to see how it works, or doesn't. Also, I notice from screen shots that the AI traffic slider now has a separate and specific setting for enabling GA traffic. I didn't see this mentioned in the section on ATC and AI traffic in the AVSIM review.I suppose I'll have to find out for myself, which I hopefully will in the next few days once FS2004 arrives in my mailbox.- Caphollandhttp://caphollands.fsgateway.comhttp://jdtllc.com/images/RCsupporter.jpg
