..on a day like this.

First shot is Bill's Tiger, the next 2 are Wozza's Aussie bird. Unfortunately all of Bill's planes have gauge problems in FSX and his Tiger is no exception (ie almost all of his gauges are incompatible). Wozza's is OK all round

Ash, yes I am. I'm doing all the flying I can find time for in FSX as I experiment transferring planes over.

Here's something for all of the 'hard-antis' to consider. There is so much good stuff in it if you look for it. It's a pity that it's been let down by other stuff that I've mentioned elsewhere that could have been fixed before release IMO if a fraction of the money spent on promos, demos and seminars had been spent on a bit more development work.

But there's a very great deal about it to enjoy, and with care and editing of the cfg file and things, it's possible to get it to reasonable levels of quality and FR even on a fairly modest machine, which is all I've got, as my pics show. Notice I haven't turned off autogen, road and water traffic or airborne AI to get there.

We've bashed MS and hopefully despite some of the more childish responses we've received from some of the apogees amd MS appeasers the message has, and will continue to get through.

We want the bugs and errors fixed, and fast. Not in 9 months or a year's time. This side of Christmas.

A lot of us now have now kept our side of the bargain by keeping the faith and upgrading. So that is how they should keep their side. And that's what I meant elsewhere by finding a constructive way to move forward.

In the meantime there's no reason why we shouldn't enjoy the many great features that are there in FSX.

Nice again! Hard for me to tell them apart though. In response to your post - you're preaching to the converted mate  ;)

You're not going to convince me to get it because of money limits, and the fact that FS9 is a perfectly good product with all the major problems fixed. There is no reason at all to upgrade right now unless you are a developer or you just like tweaking (true for you I guess), or you are curious and have plenty of cash, or because you have to have the latest new thing, and a whole host of other reasons.. but I don't have those reasons, though I must confess the existance of the 'better' FSX is casting a shadow over my FS9 enjoyment... I'm only human ;)
