So... just curious, what does the update bring (or fix)? I hadn't really noticed anything "broken" with the sim but will be good to know, as a reference.

Quick summary as to why I love MS Flight: Better graphics (by far) Better performance More realistic flight model Incredible lighting (fly low early in the morning or late at night and you'll see what I mean! More stable Better sounds (by far) More realistic water landings. Can bounce off water with tundra tires. Better crash effects (better collision model - can scrape trees) Trees look far better Water looks far better More realistic wind and turbulence effects. Better clouds Better aircraft graphics overal (shadows, appearance of glass, internal lighting/reflections/feel of immersion in aircraft, and yes I'm comparing with available payware) I don't need ATC I don't need heavy iron - it's flying for fun, not for procedural practice Better ground handling To be honest after looking at the poll I was surprised that so many don't seem to rate MS Flight, but then I realised that many probably don't do it for simple visual flying, but for procedural flying. Having said all that to me the physics is *by far* the most important aspect of any sim, hence my love for other sims like Rise of Flight. I won't touch Aerofly because of it's lack of flight fidelity. So... what are your reasons for voting MS Flight, for those that have...
