That's fantastic!I saw animals, birds, cars... the trees look great. I'm not sure butthere might have even been cloud shadow (that scene with the islands near the beginning). great coastlines and water too. Moving vehicles at airports will be nice as well.

Nice find and nice video...I wonder a couple things tdragger or someone may be able to answer?1. The explosions scene with the heli, etc. Is that a "pre-video" of the mission (i.e. kind of like the pre-mission videos in a shoot em up game like Call Of Duty) or is that footage from the ACTUAL simulated gameplay?2. The water and lighting effects look great! However, is this the "spiced up" version running DX10 or is that the DX9 version? Sorry I am not up on this, maybe DX10 is not even in aplha or beta mode so if it's obvious DX9 I am sorry for asking/being ignorant of that fact.Thanks in advance!

I see a lot of new things and opportunity for add-on's there. :) One thing I think FSX is bringing is the immersion factor. It's becoming a very dynamic world, rather than so static as before. I know a lot of people are going on and on about flight dynamics. That seems to be something that can't be shown really. More to the point, it's more of a hands on feel. I've seen a lot of video and screenshots to showcase the newer graphic updates, and I must say: I am VERY impressed and looking forward to FSX.Of course, I'm still interested in the little tweaks and such done to the rest: difference in AI, ATC, sound (other than 5.1 :) )... Video is hard to demonstrate that, though... Any official/non-official word yet?So, now that E3 has a hands on, does it go to the Beta testers? ;) ... :)

I don't see why it should take that long. Where did you get your facts from?

From me, probably, though it's more like seconds than minutes.

Well when you wake up you'll see them at all major airports in the world *and* coming up to your aircraft to unload. ;)

Hmm- as they say, save the best for last!

That makes more sense. Mr Leaming is getting a bit carried away in all the excitement ;)
