I have FS98, I use even today it on my notebook.

I have FS2004, had 2002 and missed 2000 because had better things to do at the time (recovering from a near fatal accident, actually), and I use/have used them all.

I'll be damned to the lower pits of hell if I find a real difference in how the planes behave from a version to another.

I'm with you that the prettier graphic are nice, but they do not make the simulator.


PS
This is my opinion in the matter. No offence is meant to any of you reading.

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.

I guess when she divorced Ken, he got the car?  What remains for katahu  to look for?  Maybe, in a fit of nostalgia - "Project Barbie" ??

I think you have just caused apoplectic convulsions among the die hard flight dynamicists, who argue that a .01% improvement in the flight dynamics is a major improvement.

Like you, I can't really determine how much of an improvement a specific model is (I guess we'd have to test the FS98 default Cessna vs its FS2004 version and how "close" they come to the official Cessna numbers)
but from the flight dynamics modelling standpoint.

Actually I think i'll be quite glad if it doesn't, but then again that wouldn't really be an improvement and only 6 year old girls and DIE HARD flight sim fans would buy FSX then. Grin

No. When Barbie sued Ken she "Sued that b*stard for everything he owned."

But of course this is Barbies NEW car brought with the money she got from Ken from the divorce. Smiley

I heard that she hired a very good PI. He managed to video Ken whilst cutting up some white powder with his Amex card as two hookers looked on.
Barbie took him to the cleaners.

They can have as many conniptions as they desire. Facts are and remain that NO real improvement in dynamycs has been done since FS98.

I can't say about previous versions' dynamycs, since it's been a while I used them and even after having downloaded them all from abandonware servers I still have to find a suitable PC on which run them (read: slow enough), but I know what I talk about regarding from FS98 to nowadays.

How about being able to tell a co-pilot to land it so you cant crash in 1/16mi visibility, and while its landing go back to a seat and watch out the wing-view, with a glass of wine in your hand?

Moving vehicles in and around the airport - fuel trucks, steps, tugs etc. I doubt it will include them, but I'd gladly be told that I am wrong! Cheesy

I was reading a review of this from PC Pilot. they are saying that there will be vehicles in this FS world. i wouldn't say that to fast. on that we need to wait and see  Wink
