How much was FS9 and FSX when they first came out? With Flight you get the big island of Hawaii and the Vans RV-6A for free. If you want the rest of the Hawaii island you have to pay, if you want more planes you will have to pay. This will be one expensive game!I spent a lot of money on FS9 but out of the box I got more than 1 plane, the whole world with thousands of airports, downloadable weather, ACT, and A6I planes.

Seems like I paid around 69 bucks for FSX Deluxe when it was released... somewhere in that range.

I got the FSX Deluxe Edition when it first came out and it was $70. The base version was $50 or $60. Can't remember if it was on sale or not. Anyway I remember hating that many of the good add-ons cost $40, almost as much as the base sim!I almost forgot, I bought FS2004 around when it came out too. I believe it was only $40. I think I had a rebate though because I already owned FS2002 (but I might be confusing the rebate with another FS version since I started with FS5.0).

Just FYI, you do not get the RV6 for free, it comes with the rest of the islands for $20.
