I like the Gamin 1000, Grumman Goose, and the SDK. Thus I'm going for Deluxe.

Deluxe, definatly!

But those minimum requirements are meant as a joke, right?  ;D

Deluxe, it would be a false economy to spare the extra few pounds.

Hard Drive : 14Gb!!!

Well, compared with the 3 Gb from FS9, it is a lot more...

Deluxe....

...but only if it is provided with a free copy of Vista...
...or, at least, a free copy of Windows XP containing Service Pack 2 (allowing upgrades)....
...or else...
Neither Standard.....nor Deluxe... ;)...!

I believe it's a given that the majority of people who frequent the flight sim sites are going for the deluxe vers.  :)

Can someone explain to me why it stipulates SP2. I went to all the trouble of installing it after trying the demo & it doesn't seem to make a blind bit of difference. ::)

Another thing. What's all this about a time limit on the demo? Does that mean it comes to an abrupt halt after a certain length of time, never to work again? I've read the Readme, the EULA & the download instructions carefully & can't find any mention of it.

After 30 mins. of non-stop flying, a message will pop-up saying; Your 30 mins. has expired, and that flightsim will close. - Or something like that.

What I do is note the time I take off, and 28 minutes later save the flight, end the flight, and load the flight, and once again, note the time.. (so on)...
