MS Flight Piggy Bank! What are you saving for?

Recommended Posts

I am saving for the Alaska Pack downloadable content (DLC) and hoping I get a rescue helicopter in the package or a great one like the Agusta Westland that I can purchase seperately both for a fair price. And I am going to sell the 2 Logitech Attack 3 joysticks I have and get the Logitech Pro 3D with the twist for rudder and helicopters. Already bought the Hawaiin Pack!Also if/when we get a pack that includes Colorado, Utah, etc....we can rescue skiers! Or the Swiss Alps :)What's your (imaginary) piggy bank for?

Alaska and a working auto pilot. Flip the Vans inverted, hit the AP and buzz Waikiki!! Tormenting the tourists, that's the Aloha spirit for me...

1. A more powerful graphics card. My ATI Radeon HD 5450 Gives me very bad shimmering anywhere near Flight autogen.2. A GPS. I find that having to interrupt the current flight to display the Map is a nuisance.3. Alaska of course.4. I badly need the European Alps. Almost know this area by heart. It has every kind of terrain to fly in and I would really like it to be done to the same level of detail as Hawaii.5. Egypt. The Nile valley from Alexandria down to Aswan with detailed renditions of the pyramids, the Valley of the Kings, and Abu Simbel would be great.6. The Queenstown area of the South Island of New Zealand incorporating the Southern Alps, and the tricky landing airports at Mount Cook and Milford Sound.7. Sydney Australia and the Blue Mountains with detailed renditions of the Hawkesbury, Katoomba and the Three Sisters.8. Some evidence of activity at the airports.

Alaska, a helicopter, European areas, more classic aircraft...my purchases will be limited, as I've decided after an eight year lapse to get back into real world flying...

shimmering would be a lack of AA or transparency AA. or maybe AF. unlikely to be your card

My dream has already come true. I cant tell you on how many forums over the years I lobbied for a detailed Hawaii, and had it fall on deaf ears.Alaska is not a biggie for me, but I would love to see California and a super rendition of Las Vegas Nevada. New york would be great, and all of those would be instant "Here is my wallet MS" events.Barring those, I guess I would be saving for the magnum P.I helicopter for Hawaii, and/or a Beaver/Twin otter for Alaska.
