I notice that one of the achievements is shipping cargo without being detected.

So, Flight is the new coke runner simulator?

I'm having a bit of fun with it. I've managed to piss off my $100.00 hamburger to the point of needing medical attention after she told me to let her jump out over the strip, I did a loop, and "let" her out. wink Perhaps she should've strapped in? MUAHAHAHA! Here's a screenie from my low level flying online...

MS Flight wasn't worth all the hype MS said it would be IMO. If I want a job to fly cargo, I jump in FSX using AirHAuler from JustFlight.com. I've been using both those products since they've come out, and haven't looked back.

After going for a joyride in Flight, I'm always closing it down after 30mins or so to play FSX instead if that says anything.

I was bored to death of it within an hour.Other then the great framerates on the highest settings its complete mindless garbage when compared to FS9 or FSX.It lacks everything that would keep any serious flight sim fan around.What the Flight developement team doesn't realize is gamers (which this is suppose to appeal to) quickly move onto a new game.Flight simmers stick around and contribute to the longevity of a product for many years.Back to FSX for me.

I like the look for sure. Night with weather feels lonely the way it should. Landing on water at night is satisfying for me. But I'd rather do it in a Junkers 52 or Arado Sea plane. wink

I am not a fan of ala carte games. And the closing to community design and creation is an absolute no no microsoft.
I'll fly the free but I probably won't buy unless you create a total Germany package.

You give me this quality complete world in one package with community development, I'm all in. But...
