|

I picked up this link from a recent post over at FreeFlight Design Shop.
MSFS wants to know what airports they might have missed in FSX.
Not which airports have bugs or aren't quite correct....they are looking for the ones they were not aware of or forgot altogether.
Interesting how the blogger refers to the 'next' version of the sim as well....good to hear them talk that way.

Here's one that they don't have. FJDG. I was there a few times in reality. But, it seems as if, a sim cannot mimmick reality.

Where do you see the word "GAME" in the software title?
I could have sworn that the word "SIMULATOR" appears instead.
"MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR"
PS: I will have to admit that it appears on their website under the heading for "Games". That is just so that they can attract a bigger audience which is just a Marketing tool. 8) 8)
PS: Our Civil Air Patrol Commander wants to acquire a copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator for our Squadron. He wants to use it as a SIMULATOR. |

Hey Skip,
Keeping it on the good side of things, but my FS2004 tin, that the "game" came in, says this at the bottom:
Microsoft "Game Studios"...... 8O
And on the back, there is a "Note" to it. Under computer specs.
"Note: The above are the specifications a computer must have to run this game. blah blah blah".
You know I love to respectfully stick my finger between your ribs, every now and then. :D

You and I will always disagree on this subject.
You will always say, "It tastes good".
I will always say, "It is good for you".
The important thing to remember is to always have fun while you are learning. I am still learning and I am having fun doing it. 8) 8) |
