do you think there are going to be Jet aircraft?

I think it's guaranteed to have jet aircraft and larger planes. If you look at the achievements list (under pilot profile) then there are achievements for carrying a lot of cargo/passengers (which would be unfeasable with the stock aircraft) and there are achievements for going fast - There is definitely one for going at Mach 1, I think there are others for going even faster.

I just wonder why they didn't give us a lot more on release.

We'll see the coming weeks/months :)

That doesn't necessarily mean jets.  You could be flying a Caravan with passengers or cargo to the other side of the island or helicopter rides for the tourists or something...   :P

In MS Flight they class the Maule as a cargo aircraft so there might not even be a Caravan.

I Jus Dunno', Word has it, from Sources that their Next Big Release will be more hands on' experience and challenging, and it'll be worth every penny  $us 79.99. Inside sources send this as to what it'll be. Its similar to a jet, kinda sorta in a way.                  http://i1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff401/IFlyWings/stunt-kite-flying.jpg

Well, something big anyway. But for the Mach 1 achievement, you'll need something very fast (or something small, and aim it in a downwards direction)  ;D

"A--yup! Here, let me crack open another beer and shows ya how to do a loop!"

I think I'll stick with FSX.

Microsoft is proving over and over again that it is unable to adapt to a rapidly changing computer world.  Google and Apple are about to clean their clock and they don't have a clue how to fix it.  As much as I have a love/hate thing with MS I never thought I would see the day when they would fall.  Now it looks almost inevitable and I don't mean with just Flight.  ::)

The more I read, MS didn't fall.  They jumped.  Head first off a cliff.  It's clear now that their focus is on the *game* community, not the *sim* community.

I believe BOIKAT just hit the Nail on the head with that statement and Drove it Home !!! that statement right there definetly sums it up Alone !  Nothing more needs to be said ~ it is - what it is ~ "Game Boy" ! :-X

I hate how they play jet engine sounds as an ambient thing, In beta I always looked around to find a miracle, but came up short... :'( :'( :'(

You should keep your hopes up for jets.

If you go through the achievements, you'll see there's one for breaking the sound barrier, another for exceeding Mach 2 and another for exceeding Mach 3.

I'm not really interested in paying another $20 or whatever to fly supersonic over Hawaii. Rather do Mach 3 and go supersonic all the way to Canada in my good old fsx :P

Have you seen the recommended hard disk space? It's 30GB. If Flight doesn't offer scenery for the whole world, it will at least offer quite a lot.

There is also an award in Flight called "Globe Trotter" or something like that. I don't think they would've called it that if you can't trot the whole globe.
