As MS Flight Sim X is fixin to be released, I am wondering if I couldn't
get a better IFR simulator for similar money? I am currently using MS
Flight Sim for help on keeping procedures fresh -- but there are a lot
of things that aren't very realistic about IFR on MSFS. I imagine since
it's so visually oriented but I don't really care about the graphics.

Any of y'all use a PC sim that you recommend?

I can only say that I blew a lot of money on ASA's On Top and IPTrainer
and never got them to work. ASA's software efforts seem to be a lot
lacking.

They (or at least On Top) worked fine for me, even on my pathetic little
laptop. There was a little initial irritation with the yoke control
sensitivity, but after working out which button to hit when, it's all
worked nicely for me for a long while. Wouldn't have done my IFR
training without it.

Now if only I had a decent Windows box to run something better on... :-)
