I last checked it out a few months ago. It’s looking somewhat better, but it’s still looking like FS 2000. I’m not meaning to put it down, but I’m after eye candy, and FSX and X-plane both have it. Eventually I will dual-boot, or VM one OS into the other, or something. I miss Linux having used it for only 6 months or so. THEN, I’ll probably get Flight Gear along side the others.

FS 2000!?

Hell guy, last time I really played around with FS, it was on a 4.77MHz PC with a green monochrome screen. And we used FS back then to test the compatibility of hardware.

Funny how things have changed.

So you're comparing a 1.0 release of free and open software that runs on multiple platforms to a 2000 release of software put out by a corporation with Billion$ in R&D at their disposal?!

Damn those FG guys are good!
