Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)MSFS2K is one fantastic civilian flight simulator.
As a student Pilot at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, in Daytona Beach Florida, I am very familiar with how aircraft perform. Microsoft Flight Sim 2000 (i have Professional [mmmm Mooney/Kingair]) is very close to the real thing. The downloadable real-world weather data makes it possible to go fly "right now" in curerent conditions. The aircraft perform how they should, plus you can try things you wouldn't dream of in real life. "Gee Mike, are you doing aerobatics in the concorde again? They have an extra 300 for that you know!"
Graphic/terrain Detail is superb. I can find and recognize airports & major roads (IFR = I follow roads) from just about anywhere and there are more 3D buildings to look at than ever. The weather looks fantastic (check out a thunderstorm in a 777 or a Lear sometime) You need a real fast gaming system to maintain playability though.
With the amount of end-user support for flight sim 98, you can be sure thet there will be hundreds of new aircraft to download, along with other new goodies.
Multiplayer is tons of fun, as several students and i fly together regularly. We even have a dispach student play as an "observer" in the tower view to act as our ATC, just like in real life.
