The headlights and tail lights are also included which should make for some very scenic night flying or evening approaches into major cities.

Sounds like a FS-X is going to be pretty wicked. Have they mentioned yet what having all the different bits (cars, whales, birds, baggage cars at airports, etc.) will do to the performance? It sounds like a pretty hefty machine would be needed to not only be able to fly with all of those but to have  it look good as well.

Very impresive though

That's what was pretty much understood from the start.

Ok ok, so here is my little list
- new PC-of-the-death-that-kills
- new joystick
- Vista (if not embedded with the new PC)
- Track IR
- FSX Deluxe

... Looks like I'm going to eat only Pasta for a while :D

The screenshot in the airport, at the gate... it says it all I think. THIS is really a great addition to the environment quality.

It may sound weird, but the fluctuation of road traffic, and the addition of cars lights, will also provide a whole new feeling during those night landing phases.

FINALLY, FI-NA-LLY they have done something to improve the glider experience. It was about time they did it. The glider is included in the sim since FS5 (was it in FS4 as well?) and 5 releases later, we will finally get realistic tow planes, grrrrreeeeaaaat  ;D

me waiting for FSX  8)
