Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

I've got just two things to say;
1) General Discussion is the wrong forum for this post!
2) Not just two weeks but an opening discussion behind /yabb?num=1322235008 ; Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I downloaded X-Plane 10 yesterday...
...took over 2 hours!

Installed it...

..that took another 3 weeks (I exaggerate)...

The gigantic list of options then confronted me.. Shocked

...!

I attempted to configure as many as made sense to me...
..started up the Sim, and the whole thing went haywire as I went around in ever decreasing circles, and finally crashed into the ground, with Fire Engine bells ringing in my ears!... Cry

...!
Its far to complicated to set up, for my feeble brain to comprehend, so I fired up my trusty FS 2004, and all the World suddenly became rosy again!... Smiley

...!

Paul... Smiley

...!

"X-Plan" Sounds like a Medical recommendation... Wink

If the flight dynamics are similar to the way they were in X-plane 9, I will pass. X-Plane 9 looked horrible, there was a weird haze about 10miles out, very inaccurate (my local lake was missing and it is not a small one!), and about the flight dynamics...well...a fully loaded Cessna 182 cannot do rolls at 300+degrees per second, snap rolls, and multiple loops at 90kts IAS and 1500ft.
That said, I will stay away from X-Plane.
