Ladies and gentlemen...5 new screenshots are now live! They are pretty awesome, especially the first two where a new single engine airplane is shown.

1st-awsome!!!!!!!
2nd-I just had a thought pop into my head-is it possible that FLight is a CGI run engine???
Its only the landing phase in a plane crash that hurts...

There is a noticeable improvement in the beach in #3 and the cliffs in #4. And if the waves are animated in #2, #3, & #4,

there as well. I'm beginning to hope that FSX aircraft will work in it.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

My hope is that FS(8)(9)(X) aircraft won't work in Flight, since it would mean that we have a completely new platform to work with, which would mean we aren't restricted to the structure of the past installments.

I want to create (and fly) aircraft in Flight that I was never able to fly without payware products in the past.  I want some sort of vectored-thrust to be available, as well as many other options, all of which were absent in FS.

Begin despairing. It was made semi-official some time ago that only FSX's plane MAY be considered for porting. Below that... :(

That depends on you and how much time you are ready to pass with the right coding tools... EVEN RIGHT NOW, with FS8-9-X. ::)

You really believe coding a whole plane is easy? :-?

Dream on tranquilly. Dreams are something no one can deny you, but when you finally wake up, prepare yourself to be content with new graphics.

Only. :-X

Travis IS an aircraft model designer already ..
