Have a look in the software forum. There are several threads.

I've had Orbiter for some time now and love it. If you are into space flight then it's about the best there is. Only problem is that it takes some learning. The physics are accurate as they possibly can be so even the simplest things seem difficult when starting out. Be prepared to study some orbital physics and basic astronomy.

Oh, another thing. Orbiter doesn't come with sound so you need Orbiter Sound by Dan Steph. You can find it in the links section at the Orbiter website. While you are there you should download the Delta Glider II (G-SNDO). It's an upgrade of a ship that comes standard with Orbiter that is of a complexity approaching or surpassing many planes in FS2002. Definately worth downloading. I've done a whole tour of the Solar System in it.
