I love Orbiter! It's free and I got to the moon and mars.(Woooo!) I also love FS2002 (My friend just gave it to me recently) I'm havin fun with my Firefox. But, I want to travel further with my firefox. At one time my friend had Fs2002 and I was able to ride that fucker over Mach 3. My favorite journey was flyin about 18,000ft or so at that speed, staring at, and lookin for more northern lights!!!
I've never owned a flight sim besides Orbiter or playstation's ACE Combat.
. I became interested in flight back when I had an apple 2c. (80's). My Father was 32years Airforce. I never joined. Now that I'm older I look back on all the pictures and things he would tell me about his ventures. I'm lucky he lived long enough to say "old age"

It's a looooooong story.
Bottom line is I want to stare over the earth traveling over mach 5 in my firefox. Is it possible? Any mods? anything? or somthing close?  get over 70000 ft. and to loose gravity in the arctic. my guages go nuts

I almost forgot Xeno that you can't get above 1000knts speed in FS

Yes you can. I've done 1500+ in the SR-71.

I've got the Firefox, too. When I first begin a flight, I have total control of the view-- I can put my viewpoint in any position via the hat switch on my controller. But as the flight continues, I find that I can't keep up with the plane. Eventually, I am left looking up the tailipes. What gives?
