If you have Windows 7, Microsoft FSX is the best. It was a bit jerky on XP, but apparently runs as smooth as silk on 7. Definitely the bees' knees.  Thumbs Up! Wink

Doesn't do those poncy planes with engines. IIRC, you can be towed by one though.  Wink

Works really well in a room with 3 DLP projectors and half a glider fuselage hooked up to the joystick interface.  Cool

True, but you can skip the take-off and landing part of the game.
