One thing that is lovely to see (and the first time I've noticed it in a commercial model, is the widescreen 2D cockpit. I have been contemplaiting a new monitor, and they are almost all widescreen nowdays, and this has but me of as you get that horrible stretch or worse with a standard cockpit on a widescreen monitor. A nice touch.
Only one thing I did notice on the main skysim page.... that good awful VC10! :o

Everytime I see Gordon at Duxford, he get's a ribbing over that particular product!

Unfortunately, there are many poor souls who have no idea what they're letting themselves in for who, after buying 'said product' think that's how it really is :o :roll: :brick:
I know the poor chap has to make a living but there
are limits. Worst of all.. he doesn't wear a stripey T-shirt or Dick-Turpin-style eye mask either! Oh the humanities!

Why is it there's never a Policeman around when you want one
