I found MFS (1990) to be nothing like flying a real aircraft..


That was two decades ago.

George, c'mon. In 1990, I was running Flight Simulator on a computer
(a 386, if I recall) with less power than a Palm Pilot has today.

Take a look at FS2004, on a good system. You will be absolutely blown
away.


It might be Jay but I was playing with a Bantam B22 (Microlight) back
then and the MSFS lost out.
I'm not knocking the 3 axis with all the bells and whistles just
flying the electrons doesn't do anything for me.
