When I was at the Niagara Aerospace Museum, I finally got the change to try FSX, in a nifty "cockpit mockup"...I was impressed at the better quality of the landscape, and seeing the traffic moving along the roads. That was it. I'd already heard that the flight physics were pretty much unchanged from FS 2004, and an attempt at a spin pretty much verified that.

I wish Ubisoft would make a flight simulator using the engine from Sturmovik...that would kick some serious behind.
