Next year our loved FS2004 is going 20 years old, isn't?

Featured Replies

Because the release was on 2003, isn't? or maybe 2004?

Twenty years and even today with msfs I love start it up time to time.

I'm tempted myself to collect physical time tables for creating flightplans of the summer of 2003. But the last thing I need it's to start another retro collection....

October 2003, IIRC. But I don't remember the exact date. I remember seeing it on the shelves in Colombia somewhere in 2004.

Best regards,

My FS9 installation has "morphed" into a representation of the UK between the late '90's and probably 2010 or thereabouts, so some airfields will still be active which may not have been, where others have been updated or some smaller strips even created from scratch that didn't exist at the time.

I continue to "play" as and when the inclination takes me, maybe tidy up an annoying detail or two, but at the moment I'm disinclined to engage in any further major works.

As I said, I'm very tempted to do something special with 2003. But that task requires a lot of time that I don't have. But It is so tempting. This hobby don't stop to drive me into crazy and insane projects.
