Tried & tried to resolve the short comings of this sim. Maybe it's me, BUT FS9 for me worked GREAT :) FSX did not :(
Uninstall here I come, will wait till there are upgrades to solve many of their problems. ???

You should've taken the wise route and waited 6 more months before buying FSX. ;D

You are correct Katahu, many of the sim programs I have bought in my life time (MANY YEARS) I have not seen the problems like FSX ::)
It has good possiblities but upgrades are inorder :'(

I haven't found any short-comings in FSX; outside of an expected bug or two..

My short-comings are MY hardware.. not FSX..

The only fix for this is to upgrade..

In which case, Eagleo will have to wait 6 months to fully enjoy FSX like the rest of us. ;D

The capability of the available technology is probably the biggest issue.

Hey Brett....

See those water droplets on the wing-struts ?

No I can't, I've had to turn the bloody water detail down so far........ ;D

"You should've taken the wise route . . . " and never buy software versions ending with zero!

Remember FS5.0?

Anyway, I'm a satisfied FSX Deluxe (FS10) user: What else can you buy for $62 bucks USD? (that's what I paid for mine October 6th)
