Hey my computer already smells like Jet A so that wouldn't make a difference.  I think the smell of propwash and burnt oil would be nice though

What will FS not include?  Hmmmm.....How about that irish dude who runs into the middle of sporting events wearing a kilt and wielding large pieces of cardboard that advertise religion.  Yep,  pretty sure hes not going to be running across the RW at KORD screeming at passengers.

Oh, and FSX will not include all the great aspects of business aviation.  Sure it has a lear and a King Air, but what about  wealthy pricks who complain about the weather?   And we can't forget all those arrogant Piaggio pilots and owners, FS will never be complete untill it includes them.  And what about a "ground crew mode" where you wake up at 4am to deal with all of the above, plus crazy ramp managers, and stick-in-the-ass flight options pilots who bitch about not having their slow ass Hawker on the ramp after they call only 10 minute ahead of time.  Then you finally reach luinch time and a friggin' Bonanza pilot whines about how he never gets the parking spot in front of the FBO, and he claims "if you would put those damn chips down, and get off your ass, things would run better"(when in reality this is the only time you have sat down since you got there).  And when the shift change time comes, you learn that they need you for second shift because another flightline worker is hung over and needs you to work for him.  So you do all of that over again and you reach 2159cst, when a fax comes in.  Who could that be?  Why its none other than a Netjets catering order.  So you go out to find caviar and filet mignon, and in the process you are called by 5 netjets people all to confirm the same order.  But of course you got the order, but there are no vendors of caviar this late.   So you say "**** it" and buy some peanut crackers and beef jerky out of the vending machine, and call it a day.  That would be just ****ing sweet, would it not?

Yup, MS has along way to go to be "As Real As It Gets"

FSX will not include anything. Infact I predict that it will just be an empty box.

Sheep strike just before rotation. Then try out the emergency procedures. Radio out your emergency, get priority landing clearence. On approach see the fire crews at the edge of the runway. As you touch down, switch to outside view and see them race along behind you just before they vanish in the shower of sparks and smoke as your wing or nose starts to make contact with the runway. You come to halt, gather yourself together, open the entry door just as you get showered in foam. For added realism, you get to smell the stuff............it stinks.
