This is what I get.
Microsoft Flight Simulator Survey  
      The survey is being updated based on some of the responses we've received so far. Please check back with us at the end of today for the latest survey.  

M$ already knows my opinion. I've told them often enough over the years. They never took any notice. I never expected them to. Maybe this survey shows a change of heart. ::)

I think if M$ had any sense they should look around the scenery and other add-ons wanted forum ;D
They'd soon see a pattern of missing bits and grumpy players...
Mind you if I can get into this survey I'll be happy, there are things that do need correcting, but considering what they have done I still think FS9 is the best simulator out there by a considerable margin, and if anyone tries to take it away from me I'll do something horrible to them involving a spatula and a LOT of marmalade ;D ;D ;D

More likely a MSN .NET passport. I used to have one but haven't used it for months & forget the password anyway. I wasn't asked for an ID. I think a Hotmail account is the same thing.
