Nope. Just the Maule.
I understand that in Q3 2012 Microsoft will have a Pilot's Strike add-on for Flight on sale. This is a realistic simulation of a pilot's strike at a major international airline. The violence depicted are the confrontations between passengers stranded in the airport terminal and the skeleton staff the airline happen to have on customer service duty at the time. The amount of violence can be configured by way of three slider settings. The first slider is the average amount of time in hours that the passengers have been stranded. The second slider is the proportion of stranded passengers who were booked for their annual holidays. The third slider is the average out-of-pocket loss the stranded passengers will have incurred at the conclusion of the strike.
LOL :)

Yeah no jet sounds because there will be no jets. This is by far best decision ever made by MS, finally all flight sim community will move completely to X plane / other good alternatives instead of unstable rubbish made by MS. Even in case that im wrong and Flight is whole world simulator unstable behavior of FSX will prevent me and probably most other long time FSX users from buying their rubbish again. Had working fsx before my C disk broke and it crashed very rarely. Then after got new disk had to reinstall FSX and all addons, now with same config it crashes always when changing views few times using keyboard not menu, and uiautomationcore fix doesnt help this time...

Well X-plane 10 is released, and as you're 'probably' not going to buy Flight when its released REGUARDLESS of the limited information we have on the game, theres no need to continue keeping tabs on its progress or posting whats already been posted a million times before.I know im a relative newcomer to this forum and my comments may be perceived as negative, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD IF YOU DONT LIKE FLIGHT then ###### off to the xplane forum

You want to bet me the same $50 that Mark and I have that there will be no jets in Flight? Please put your $ where your mouth is.

$20 at least. I'm off now, fsx randomly crashed on startup this time.
It's odd that MS's own browser (IE) cannot play the files at all. When attempting to open the links at the Flight website, IE locks up completely. I have to kill the process via the Task Manager!UPDATE: I just went back to the site and was able to play the sounds this time. Clicking on the download link still leads to a lockup though... LOL.gif
On my Macbook when I try to load the Flight site my browser immediately tries to load three corrupted audio files. But then I was able to get the clips to play when using the link in their news article. So it isn't just your PC, seems like the Flight site has a new bug.

Running Firefox 9 Beta and the sounds work fine for me.

They work fine on Chrome as well.

I am using Windows 7 and IE 9.No problem listening to the sounds. ( Win 7 asks if it is OK to run Media Player.......Just say yes !! ) I think the " Crude Humour " might be the fact Microsoft actually want money for this thingand the " Mild Violence " could be the fact that you threw the DVD's at your dog in dissapointment.Fred.

FSX was released FIVE years ago, guys. Why do people keep on making the same mistake?

No speculating is way too fun. And how can you know if you really like flight when we know only that it has small planes and Hawaii? (unless you love flying small planes around Hawaii only)
Perhaps the crude humour and mild violence comes from the multitude of XBL users that will sit there and call you gay for not moving out of their way during taxi? Thus leading to air rage and being cut up.Any new info on flight is always welcome, reguardless of how little the update is or how minute the infomation is in the grand scale.
I guess we're in for Grand Theft Aero then... Whistle.gif

I'd be happy to fly small planes around Hawaii, Ill buy the game reguardless of its content..You're not speculating, you're trolling.But lets look at the bigger picture. Theres more and more evidence to suggest its a world wide simulator not just Hawaii
