I must have been suckered with the wrong version of FSX (deluxe) because my game looks nothing like that... ???

I know Jeff Greth quite well, and know that this was "filmed" in FSX using his company's (Flight Scenery) "FlightZone O2: Portland" scenery made for FSX... and featuring Digital Aviation's new DO-27 for FSX...

So the actual answer is "Yes, it is FSX, but with custom scenery added." It is designed as an advertising promo...

Anyone notice how his "head" seem to lurch forward when he decelerated on landing? I noticed the that only happens in FSX. Like the body reacting to acceleration and deceleration in cockpit view.Thats what made me think it had to be FSX.

Yes, it does, and it is possible that this is FSX with acive camera installed. The reason I say this is that without seeing water in the video there is no vastly obvious effect that can be attributed to FSX alone.. Things such as clouds and sky colour can all be altered with third party addons.... Also, about the smoothness he is experiencing, if the guy has third part scenery installed, on a wide area such as Portland, none of the default memory hogs of the stock FSX are present... such as textures and autogen, as these are all custom and designed to be framerate freindly...

Also, about the TrackIR, he could just be using the 'Use mouse in VC' option in Activae camera, it allows to look around by simply holding down the scroll wheel.

Anyways, just my views...

Nope, thats FS9. Head movement is from trackir it looks like. Panel vibrations look part of the aircraft addon. The trees give it away.

I'm wondering again.... Is there any add-on scenery with land vehicles that follow roads for FS9.. ? Because there ARE road-following cars and trucks in that video..

Yep, George Grimshaw's Boston Logan is an example. Some of canuk's sceneries also have it. The difference is that they only follow roads as part of the scenery

This is just plain weird.. Why on Earth would someone make the video and then claim it's FSX ?

Making FS9 look that good would earn more kudos for the scenery (and the clip maker) than just running FSX ?

It makes no sense..

Then I stand corrected. There's an addon scenery for Bacolod available on SimV that has traffic moving around inside as well as outside the airport.
