Thumbs up

I didn't see anything about navs or approach charts or the ability to fly them as per real world in the sim. I didn't see anything about route traces or flight plans.

A flight simulator must have those items as required, along with on-the-fly weather changes, and emergency procedures.

Fully working gauges doesn't mean you can fly cross country at night on navs and make a precision approach.

The photo scenery looks good, but the MSFT FSX at night on IFR (instruments) is excellent. I've never realized much value in VFR flying in a flight simulator.
