At the price, maybe. Especially if you're mainly talking about visuals.
However, obviously a custom-designed full-motion 737 simulator is "better"
in many other (probably more important) respects. Even within the
under-$500 simulator market (or the under-$100 market, for that matter)
there is considerable debate regarding which simulator is "best".

Agreed. However, the director of the team (a well-respected Swede who owns
the gorgeous V-tailed Bonanza in the hangar next to ours) apparently decided
FS2002 was his most cost-effective "solution".

All I know is this: With video screens out each "window", working
instrumentation, and an authentic flight deck, the realism is stunning.
