Enough said. If you want the most realistic flight sim there is. It may not be as pretty as Microsoft's though. You can actually have weather download real time into the game as you play. Companies use it to train pilots. You can also got to http://x-plane.org/ to download user created planes. I guess you would call it an open source program. I'm not that up to speed on computer programming. Austin Meyer, the programmer is an engineer and a pilot.

BTW, he also is a friend of a good friend of mine and lives about 3 miles from me. Straight up nerd, but one hell of a programmer. We all to a trip to NYC a few years back and he spent most of the time in the apartment writing code for this program. He also just bought a Ferrari 360, so you know he has good taste.
