About half way though the first video

"especially built for a gamer who's use to a mouse and a keyboard... Microsoft flight works just as well with a joystick"????????

This will indeed be 'interesting'!

What is wrong with Silverlight? Never used it, but I keep hearing people making knowing comments about the thing like it is evil incarnate, without explaining why.

Microsoft commited a suicide in flight simulation:




It's time to take advantage on that, some modern civillian planes in CoD, if developed by third party creators, coult start a nice expansion. Thousands of civillian flightsimmers might be interested in CoD all of a sudden

MS Flight looks really rather dated.

Being in the Beta it's really hard to not say anything but without talking features or anything to break my NDA - but I have to say that Flight really is growing on me from a really frustrating start with all the "game" stuff. And the graphics engine is actually a good step ahead of FSX even if the screenshots and videos may not show that...

Maybe a historic civil flight sim?

Flying a FW200 civil airliner from Paris to London in 1937.

Or a Ford Trimot, or a Ju52, or a DC2 / DC3.

A G38 from Berlin to Moskau,

A flight shool with biplanes for the future ATP's in the 30's, then taking the chance to enlist to fly the racy planes like He111 or Do17.

Could really be a tour through aviation history.

AAhh, those dreams again...
