Did anyone notice the new simicon that looks like a gas/petrol can?

Yup I got the press release late last night & they are calling it 'FS2004 - A Century of Flight'

'FS2004' sound s better to me.....  'a Century of Flight' sounds a little like an add-on or an expansion pack for FS2002, IMHO.

it has enough new features to where ill buy it but i wished they would replace the ground textures and the lightning strikes that look like the drawings of a 4 year old the new clouds and atc look great though. I also hope they have fixed the floating trees.

I'd buy it just for the moving map in the GPS.

If that sounds extreme, take a look at the prices here for a Garmin add-on that does it  now:

http://www.fsavionics.com/html/purchase.html

Whilst their add-on is far more sophisticated than I suspect the FS2004 version will be, for me, the main feature is the map. You can effectively halve the price of FS2004 as a consequence of getting it free.

My 2 cents:

1.  Exciting!  I'm upgrading.

2.  Sorry to see that the Mr. and Mrs. King are back.  Their goofy videos annoy me!  (okay, maybe I'm being too harsh)

3.  I agree:  they should drop the Century of Flight bit.

I feel much better now.

Does anyone know about compatability issues with FS2002 STD and PRO.  Will the aircraft and add ons intergrate into FS2004 or will they have to be loaded manually? :(

WebbPA,

I'm hoping that that petrol can is either a refuel or fuel management button.  Have to wait and see I guess.

Will ;D
