Great stuff, im glad some people still appreciate FS2004 and just taking a default plane for a spin.
I must admit that, even though I have had FSX since it was first released, I have an overwhelming soft spot for FS 2004, (since using FS '98, FS 2000, and FS 2002), with all its wealth of Freeware and Payware add-ons, etc, and the way it is programmed, with it useful drop-down Menu giving instant access to everything on the fly, means that it runs smoothly on my old 2005 Dell 5000 Dimension Tower PC with everything maxed, and results in daily enjoyment...

...!
I occasionally give my FSX a try, but it doesn't instil the same sense of satisfaction that my trusty FS 2004 gives me, every time I fire it up!
