Great Minds..

I got that book too.. Back in the 90s.. Not only is it pre DirectX it is pre Windows.. A real old fashion DOS game.. As for give you a feel as to what goes into making a modern flight sim.. Remember the whole project fit on one floppy drive.. The basic strucuture is there.. So not sure if it would give a good feel for those who do any programing today.. But most of what goes into today is eye candy.. But for those who don't do any programing.. That one floppy would probally blow thier minds.. Now take that times 100 for a modern flight sim
