Is there another flightsim on the horizon. Not some little effort.
Every once-in-a-while there's one other than Microsoft's.

What's wrong with the ones we've got?

I just want more variety. I liked Fly and Flight Unlimited.

Well, we've got WWI, WWII, Korean War, VN war and modern sims; fixed
wing and rotary sims, fantasy sims and more realistic ones. I think
the lack of new titles owes to the fact that we were drowned in them a
few years back, and nothing new really pushes the ends of the envelope.

Maybe I should have been mire clear. I meant civilian sims.

But we've still got a lot of variety - small gen. aviation to jet
liners; cross-country to transoceanic. I think I've so overloaded
myself with sims I never play with because I got more obssessed with
having a variety of sims than actually enjoying them.

I don't see much variety. Other than some smaller efforts, there's only
Microsoft. I was just wondering if there was a new Fly-level sim on the
way.

Then you need to move to something more complex.
Falcon 4: Allied Force rings a bell, winning a campaign or even online
multiplayer may suit your bill.
If military sims don't float your boat, then maybe some sort of virtual
airline/real time controller/Internet thing.

You should quote.

There have been good alternate civilian sims in the past. I mentioned
two of them. I was just wondering if there was anything else coming.
Something like that would be different than what you suggested.
