That video seems much more clearer for some reason. Judging from the thickness of the horizon and the curvature of the Earth, it seems that FSX might actually allow at least a complete LEO [low earth orbit]. However that is just pure speculation at this point.

fs9 semed to be more of a cylinder than a globe because if you went to eather polar reajon the land seemed to strech out ? and you couldent go to the north pole ? i think that was a big obvious thing that needed fixing and hopefully this is it.

and its 99999 not 999999 which may be the new limit

Thats because it IS a cylinder :p

Definately one of the biggest issures with FS9, and its being fixed!  HOORAY FOR FSX!
