Perhaps the OP could make it a poll.

Yes this is really is an argument of semantics. It depends exactly what you want to simulate. For real life GA pilots flying Flight 'feels' like a closer simulation of their real life experiences whereas complex operations in heavies is what many others consider as a requirement to be called a simulator.

Did I say hardcore simmer girls? I meant hardcore sinner!

According to you real pilots don't know any better. Wow.

Very honorable of you. I'm sure I will get bored of Flight when I run out of content and be back to buying stuff from the FSX 3pd.

I think it worked for us very well but as far as MS is concerned FS was a failed business model that required masses of R&D for a one time $50 sale.Maybe this wasn't true for FS9 or earlier but as it gets more complex it becomes more time consuming for them to release a game that will get crushed on the charts by the latest first person shooter.Personally I think they should have let the 3rd party guys do the content and have a licensing model so MS can share in some of the after market dollars. But it is what it is and I'll take whatever is on offer.

Another RW pilot here that feels Flight actually largely replaces FSX in that if I want to experience the closest thing to real life GA flying than Flight is better than FSX. That, IMHO, makes it more of a sim than Flight Simulator. There, I said it.

I'm feeling the same thing (except when you reach the limits of the flight envelope it goes a bit weird), but otherwise the air feels much more real. Its random and and severe near hills and cliffs and tree lines and during every landing I have to stay on my toes in case I get blown to one side, which is what happens when landing a real plane.Its no successor to FSX however for some GA fun and even for landing practice for private pilots, it has a lot going for it....and that fog, is there nothing more awesome than that?

Anyone tried SSD in a raid configuration? Is it possible?

This is very helpful information, thank you.Do you know how to disable track ir panning when in spot view without having to hit the F9 key?

In the National Archives in Washington DC (you asked :( )BTW The ES Citation X was one of my favorites in FS9 and I'll be getting the new one when I have enough spare cash.

I used to live under the flight path of Westchester Airport KHPN and many times a P180 would come in for landing directly over my house at around 1500-2000'. I always knew instantly it was the P180 from that distinct sound and because it was my most flown plane in FS9 (for RTW) and FSX for FSEconomy (the FSD version which I adapted for FSX) I would rush outside and watch it.

I'm surprised the setup wizard doesnt let you do that. I assume you have gone through it.

I just bit the bullet on a superclocked evga 480 for $490 (minus a $30 rebate). I decided I was spending so much time on card research and tweaking that I'd be better off just shelling out the cash and earning the money back instead. Plus I think the 1.5gig ram will really help with the 3840x1024 resolution and also the extra shaders means I can probably still use the BP=0 tweak without instability.The best deal was here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130551Next month will be a new mobo and i7 chip.Damn this hobby is almost expensive as my real life flying.

I never had tearing but forcing vsync has done no harm to my system. BP=0 gave me a massive boost (50% to 80% increase in FPS @ KSEA) and the external frame limiter is helping a lot with micro stutters and for sure will be even more helpful when I get a GTX480.******* is our savior (never thought I'd hear myself say that).SpeedQuad Q6600 @ 2.4GhzRadeon HD3870x26gig DDR2 800MhzTripleHead2go @ 3840x1024TrackIR4GoFlightWin7 x64FTX;MTX;UTX;FEX;GEX
