She got excited, clapped her hands and said, "YES!"then..."Daddy... it's not a GAME!"

Oh, priceless! :LMAO:

My wife doesn't, "get" this but you guys will get a kick out of it... So I was just going to play Flight with my daughter today and I asked her, "Do you want to play your flying game?" She got excited, clapped her hands and said, "YES!" then... "Daddy... it's not a GAME!"

:LMAO: :LMAO:

"Daddy... it's not a GAME!"

"You have learned much... young one."What a cutie you have. :-)Enjoy the best you can these years Noah... they are priceless times... before you know it she will be grown off to college or work and you'll be shedding more than a tear or two... looking forward to the next time she's "home".

Great Post !!! All of us with FSX and Heavy iron now have the best of both worlds!!! Been with MSFS for 18 years i think. This could be the start of a new era for us old timers.

I agree with Tom, it's the post of the year !Great to see it pinned too.Fred.

It pretty well says it all! :good:

"Daddy... it's not a GAME!"

Good one, Noah. Thanks for the original post!

Great post....Cheers Mate :drinks:

Awesome post.I decided to give FLIGHT a chance and downloaded it.I must say, as a game, it's very good. As a simulator, not really, but I like it! And some said, it will be the lead-in for many young people who could be introduced into the hobby (i'm pretty young as well haha).

Welcome to AVSIM Misha! Hope you have lots of fun here!

I'm one of the newbies - to flights sims, to FS Flight and to this forum. I've been knocked out by how good the game is and welcomed to this forum by friendly 'experts' eager to see new members join in and stick around. I can't say I know the first thing about 'pro' flights sims, but FS Flight strikes me, as a self-confessed newbie, as a good entry point. I could get the thing up and running within moments and quickly get to grips with basic flying skills using just my 360 controller. I bought the Hawaiian DLC and the Maule plane DLC (fantastic). I guess I'm precisely the target audience for this game: someone who likes the idea of flight sims but has always been scared off the 'pro' apps like Flight Sim X, etc.I'm hoping to see some great DLC get released over the coming months. If MS have got it right they could be on to a winner here, imo. I have no problem buying into a DLC-supported sim like this is the content is substantial and worth investing in. So far, so good, then.

"May the hours you fly be thousands and the hours of enjoyment and experiences you find from them be innumerable."

Hey,Welcome to AVSIM. I hope you will have as good a time with Flight as you hope. The members here will support an help you as much as we can.Kind regards,

I must say, as a game, it's very good. As a simulator, not really, but I like it!

Welcome to the forums and thanks! I agree with you. I am a hard core simmer but I have a lot of fun with Flight. I spent about two hours on it last night when I should have been working, lol!I think what sets people like us apart from the haters is that we have been able to mentally separate Flight and FSX/FS9 into to two complete different things. Yeah it's like pilotwings, but it's like pilotwings with realistic planes that fly like real planes. I got into a spin last night, I was blown away when it actualy happened. It was an actual, real spin and I recovered from it just like you're supposed to. Not once since I've owned any FS have I seen an actual spin.And that landing challenge where you're landing in a strong, gusting crosswind on what's basically a dirt road with trees along the side - that's was hard to do, and I had fun trying.Just like I sometimes like to play Battlefield 3 instead of FSX - sometimes I like to play Flight. It's just that simple.
