I'm staring at the results of the poll. I reckon MS Made the standard edition for nothing. LOL Grin

Well, After talking to the MS guy at Oshkosh, I'm definately going to get Deluxe.

The things that really make me want to egt the deluxe version are:

MP tower mode.
More planes.
Then of course, the mission editor.

MP tower mode....
I realize I don't remeber if they aid anything about normal ATC in multiplayer mode ?
In FS9 in multiplayer, there is no ATC anymore. Is this limitation gone with FSX ?

Got mountains ?

Considering the processing power of normal ATC and the limitations of dial-up, it's more likely that FSX would only have "limited" improvements on the normal ATC area.

Gee, all that from a sample of 16? Wink

Keep in mind that the "Standard Edition" is not targeted to anyone visiting any FS related forum, website or newsgroup.

Instead, it is targeted to the other 98% of the market share who typically buy Flight Simulator as a "stocking stuffer" or birthday present for little Johnny.
