It says 64.99 for the sim,got to purchase and it goes to different packages for much more. I'm not going to buy it,yet,was just curious as to the pricing. I like it! If I were going to buy another sim I'd take this one over Flight any day. Although it's only Switzerland,there is more room to fly over. I loved the detail in the Cessna. From seeing the grained texture on the A pillars around the windscreen to the reflections of the water off the underside of the wings,or ground for that matter. I also caught how the water was splashing up against the rocks along the lake vs just water movement. Pretty damn tempting. I'm going to wait a bit though. I got the site bookmarked so it ain't goin anywhere Wink. Nice catch!

Seems nice.
The thing is:
Its all posible in FSX.

We already have amazing scenery,look at ORBX.
Clouds are even better,even freeware!
And for water;look at REX!
ENB bloom is also a massive improvement. Wink
Just the water reflection isn't possible...

Mike:where do you see the water splashing? Huh

But that's the thing guys! It's all about freagin performance in FSX!!! Although, FSX can do it all, at what expanse these options are all achieved??? What all of us hate in FSX? PERFORMANCE! I personally see AeroFlyFS as an alternative to FSX with an option for future development. The facts are: no instruments, no traffic, limited aircraft selection, limited world...It is definitely not aimed at real av simmers, however, I find the engine of the game fairly fast as far as performance go. VERY NICE DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT that caught my eye! There is, possibly, a chance for future development, as you might read on their forums, but no guarantee...This is simply another "option" to consider and keep our eyes open if the developer decides to advance further and come up with all the goodies.

And if you count what you've spent so far on FSX with all the addons? Smiley LOL I'm getting close to at least $200 Smiley

BTW, the new machine is underway, specifically designated for FSX and so far, it cost me $2,900 bucks - thats without the CPU and MB (still hesitating if I should go for IVY) and 2 monitors that I still have to buy! OUCH! And even then, the most modern CPUs still struggle to run it at the desired FPS! That's what is lame about FSX.
