Aerofly FS

Too large to download, so it looks like it's boxed only ... works out about $66 NZ. I've blown my budget a few times over for this year, I think ... but I'm wondering whether anyone here may bite ...

The videos look pretty good - particularly the one where they're dynamically changing the wind & weather parameters. Switzerland only at the moment, but they hint they may do more. Here are some extracts from the page (link above):

========================================

I saw some of this last week. Crashing the planes etc. Was very impressed with the clear crisp designs and near photo real quality of scenery. Crew animations also were far better than fsx with the crew still visible in the VC and arms feet moving etc on controls and rudder pedels. If were to coverentire world and offer more A/C variety then may need to look into it in a few years time.

No way I'm giving those up! Just curious as to where FSX may be heading after the "Flight" debacle.

Aerofly is basically a pimped up RC simulator ... so there are no procedures, AI traffic etc. It's a "solo" affair winkyy.gif

I have not even looked at MSFlight beta , simply just to much going on FSX even now so many off the recent mentioned will fade like many others , Un-limited and Fly series .
