FS98 is not dead!!

Released in 1997, FS98 was heralded at the time as a great new Flight Simulator.

FS98 is not dead!!

My good computer is broken so I've been using an older one to use for FS.  The best one I can put on is FS98, so I start looking for some good decent addon planes.  I found a couple real gems at flightsim.com (and some good ones here too) Try a search there for FS98 aircraft and the last name Midic.  Got some great russian trainers (i.e. Yak 50 etc).  They have really good VCs and are kinda challenging to fly.  I was impressed.

If you do a search on flightsim.com for "moving parts" and arrange by date in descending order - there are still new files being uploaded in 2006. I'm also impressed.

Yea I agree, I still run FS98 though for some reason it wont let me run higher than 1024x768x8, i dont even get 16bit options grr. And above 10x7 it crashes, is this a bug with Radeon 7000?
