Last Saturday at the annual AOPA fly-in at Frederick Municipal airport (headquarters of AOPA), I ran into an developer from a certain payware company (I'll give you a hint: it starts with an "E" and ends with a "soft"), and we got talking about FSX. Apparently, he's a beta tester for FSX. I tried to pick his brain about what its like. On the topic of multiplayer, he used the word "revolutionary".  ;)

Then, he used that word to describe the entire sim.  ;D

The reason I'm not naming specific names is that I'm not sure if this developer wants to be pointed out as an FSX beta tester.  ;)

There was a post in the multiplayer forum, it seems hey have TOTALLY upgraded the mp, this is all i know:

Through increased online gameplay capabilities, Flight Simulator X offers players a connected world where they can choose whom they want to be, from an air-traffic controller, pilot, or co-pilot as they interact with other aviators from around the globe by chatting in real time via headset and keyboard.

With all this they must have upgraded the MP ability. Looking forward to it  ;D

Yes, I'm really looking forward the

how about some reno/goodyear air races, etc.

In one of the E3 reports there is a screenshot with something like that, so i think your wish may come true
