815921 2009-10-01 06:34:00 Are any good alternative Flight Simulator's to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004? convair (13650)
815922 2009-10-01 06:46:00 No.

FS is the only one to have, unless you want combat.

I presume you are aware of all the add-on's available for it?

815924 2009-10-01 06:49:00 Yeah I have addons for FS2004 but wanting to what else is around. convair (13650)
815925 2009-10-01 06:55:00 Wrong

I doubt it.

I'd be surprised if that has the same level of support by developers that FS has.

The initial product is a very small part of it.

But I'll have a look around the link.

Future does not look bright for MS FS

Microsoft has laid off it's entire Flight Simulator development team, and many people are not sure what to do next.

You have never heard of X-Plane
www.x-plane.com

X-Plane is now approved for a very wide range of FAA certification levels with a wide range of companies. The FAA, though, requires a specific set of features in order to approve a simulator, features which are not all present in the desktop version of X-Plane.
