I like it a lot. Some of the metal textures and the paints look a little bit shiny, but not overly, I prefer a more drab paint scheme on old WWII bombers. Sound package from what I have tried so far is excellent and flight dynamics are superb. Selection is also great for $29.99, and the manual is also very well done.

I have posted a few screenshots, and will post some VC pics and some other aircraft (though right now I am enjoying the B-17 which is my all time favorite bomber Grin )

hmmm. Well considering in the sim I spend approx $100 to 150 a month, sometimes less, sometimes more, depending on the budget I give myself, then you compare that to the fact that I can easily drop up to $1000 a month on my art supplies - canvas, paints, scientific illustration media, graphics programs, pens, brushes, pencils, sculpting supplies, photography equipment, etc, I think the sim is a bargain lol, but I would say...

including computer (Dell XPS , graphics card nVidia 6800GT, 19" Viewsonic VX900 LCD monitor, SaitekX45 controller, payware aircraft, sceneries, utilities, some less some more than the others, I would say a lot.

Suffice to say though that the best investment I made, and this is an honest opinion, is having Michael at fs-gs.com make my computer a flight sim computer. Best money I have spent in a looooong time. He made my sim go from bad to brilliant, but yes, I would say payware alone, I am probably pushing four digits lol.

Its a hobby, and when it comes to my hobbies, I like only the best. Grin just like I haunt this place. It has some of the nicest most knowledgeable people who use the forum, and a very informative website as well.

Good to hear Stephen!
I'd also like to try Ramsa's services but not too keen to re-format at the moment...last time it took me weeks to get everything nicely installed in FS2004, addons and additional  textures packs...gah!

And hmm..where is my Windows XP disc again?  Grin

Well you might not need a reformat. I unfortunately did because I had a lot of issues with my computer

Yeah Nexus, you should not need to reformat. I think Stephen had an issue that not many have. I speak with Michael a few times a week and he said he never had to have anybody reformat. Having to do what Stephen did is not for the weak of heart!  Shocked
