Default Simulators for Acrobatics?

I would like to find a simulator that will do acrobatics in a more or less
realistic manner. When i was flying the real ones the most fun that I had
was doing acrobatics. I have bought every version of MS Flight Sim and
have taken them off the machine after a few tries, because they don't, IMO,
fly like a real plane especially in any stall maneuvers. Flight Unlimited
1 did a pretty good job, but I wonąt run on my present machine Windows XP.

Perhaps someone out there knows of other simulators that do better with
acrobatics.

Thanks in advance,

JakeInHartsel

You can try Redline: Xtreme Air Racing 2. It seems to model prop planes
pretty well. Then again, I have the original version and not the new one.
It's also pretty fun racing if you don't want to just do aerobics.

Let's just try that sentence again shall we? :-) The most accurately
stall-modelled prop-driven aircraft...

Thanks for reminding me about that. It's been on my list of sims to "get
around to" buying for a while.
