$20 doesn't seem bad, but dang, the viewing screen is the size of a laptop's screen?  You might be better off just buying Falcon 4.0.   ???

I'm typing this from my hotel room in Destin, Florida, where I'm vacationing for the week. I'll be at the museum this Friday. I'll tell you guys how it is, with pictures.  ;D

They are the actual sims, they just removed some of the system controols so that anyone of any skill level could fly.

The article even says that you could do a full dog fight including radar lock by hand if your good enough.

I'll be working in Orlando all next week, but doubt I'll be able to get over there to try this. Too bad.
