Seriously, I hope they bring it back, bigger and better. *It's a great
tool, and great fun, to boot.

Rumors only. If it comes back, it will probably be as a game.

I know the guy who's in charge of the program. Naturally he can't talk
about it due to the NDA, but I can say he's one of the best simulator
talents in the business.


That's great news, Dudley. I don't fully understand what Microsoft is/
was trying to do with this "fresh start" approach to Flight Simulator
(kinda like "scorched earth" farming, IMHO) -- but if it means we
have an even better product, I'll be happy.
