.........claims to put FSX to shame! To me, it looks like FS98, but perhaps others may be interested!

Hi Trev

Doesn't look very realistic unless it's 1989 again.

and the fancy video shows no part of the sim at all.

Regards
Rick

Hoot!...to get Star divergence like that you would need to be travelling at Warp speed!!! "Warp Factor TEN Mr. Sulu!" :lol:

The stars also all have small disc appearance like Planets...What a joke! They can't be serious :dunno:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

We'd all be awe struck mate :lol:

I dunno who did the marketing and research but saying it has 20000+ airports doesn't really say much. FS9 has 23000 straight out of the box and I dread to think how many FSX has 8) Were there nothing else.. it'd be worthwhile taking a look I guess.

Isn't this a commercial adaptation of FlightGear? I seem to remember seeing something about it being that and finding a thread somewhere on that forum about these guys being very shady.

Yeah it's mentioned somewhere in the blurb on the first page, which means you should be able to get most of it for free anyway...

When you look at that website, it reads like a scam ad you see in some mags that appeal to the lower end of the market! I would not like to test out their 'Money back' offer either.

Especially when you click on an image expecting to enlarge it, but it takes you to the purchase page instead.
