I must say that I'm having more fun with Flight than I expected. The RV6A challenges thru the fog into the airports (5 & 6) were quite good, and keeping the needles centered keeps you on your toes. By sheer chance I managed to find the runway on #6 after the wind knocked me off the centerline. I just happened to spot the runway off to my left and was able to put it down right on the centerline, although I did hit pretty hard. Managed a Gold on #5 and Bronze on #6.
Yesterday I spent a couple of hours on multiplayer and it was a kick getting input from "gamers" trying out Flight for the first time. Sounds like Microsoft's strategy is bringing more people into the fold. The more I fly this thing, the more it appears the "just a game" posts I've been reading are completely wrong.
FWIW, the most disparaging remarks I've heard about Flight have come from third party developers p/o'd that Microsoft is keeping all development in house.
 
Glad..........I got there also..."A PIECE OF CAKE....NOT"....just rescued that Surfer....yes great Fun and FLYING..it Is Flying after all.!!.....reminds me of what you say,.....the FSX thing..when it first came along....I Think FLIGHT is here to stay...and its a LOTTA FUN!...KEEP EM FLYING!!...Vin
