Not so fast -- you have the best platform for FSX AND SimCity at the
same time...
Have all your simulated people flying on your simulated airplanes.
Load o' fun!

I actually quit working with Microsoft on their sim program
this year.
PLEASE don't tell me that you're one of these people who believe I'm a
"simulator" pilot because they have discovered I have advised on the
program :-)))

Come on, now...
Though I disagree with folks but bright and not so, surely you give me
more credit than that....
Dan
I don't mean anything personal at all Dan. Just seems every time someone
associates me with Microsoft, somebody suggests I don't fly or haven't
flown in real life. In fact, this thread has been full of just that type
of accusation by two individuals.
No big deal by a long shot. :-))

Reasonable people usually figure out who's who....


I used MSFS 2004 to great advantage in preparing for my instrument
rating. It saved me many hours of dual and I took the test at the
minimum logged time (though I probably twice that unlogged on the
sim). It was worth it for holds alone


Is this an endorsement of MFS in all cases for all people? Of course
not! In the same way I don't use a torque wrench to hammer nails.


MSFS/X-Plane/what-have-you is a tool like any other. Misuse a tool and
you'll have bad results.
Why is this so hard to understand?


Dan


Beats me. Lord knows I've spent a ton of time online trying to explain
it to people.
I reviewed the Bruce Williams book on using MSFS as a training tool for
flight instructors for ASA and covered most of it there.
That review can be found onwww.simflight.comBTW (just search
Henriques)if you'd like to glance at it.
