I installed Rise of Flight on my 80Gig SSD boot drive, but after getting everything installed
on this new system, I'm running very low on space on this drive.
I'd like to move the install to by much larger magnetic drive. Do I have to uninstall/reinstall
the sim, and spend an entire night downloading the update again? (I have a slow connection)
What are my options?

Any help appreciated.
I have the boxed version of the game, and downloading the update took agonizingly long time.

Just move your entire folder to the new drive

I was hoping against hope it would be this easy.

yes , you can move to another drive, just copy your rise of flight folder over to your other drive , and use the launch app from the new drive,

i had copied over my rise of flight folder over to a new computer and had no problems,
the reason i copied the folder over is cause i have the original DVD and didn't want to wait for all the updates ,
