This is not a simulator, but merely a game. Do not expect this package to simulate any real aircraft. It also claims to cover every region and airport in the world. This may be true, but the detail is so bad that it is unusable for much of anything. And it has such features as rivers that flow up and down hill (though you must use your imagination to even recognize it is a river). If this were freeware it might be worth considering, but I would never pay for a product like this again, even at the discounted Ebay sellers price. I recommend instead a simulator called "Flight Unlimited", a quite realistic aircraft simulation for PC, that can actually help improve flying skills. I am a certified flight instructor, and I would not recommend any pilot to expect benefits from Microsoft Flight Simulator, other than entertainment. "As real as it gets" should be considered as a trademark rather than a description of the product.Read full review

Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
The soft ware had been loaded more then three times and would not load again. I was led to believe the software was in its unwrapped packaging as new, it was not.

I like this one but I didn't get nor can I find the pilots manual that they keep telling me to read. I am able to use the contols but I still had to use my CD burner to load the software. My cd-drive would not pick up disk 1. I have clean it and everything. This is the only disk that I have ever had problems with in this drive, so I know it is not it.......
Great game, older graphics, lots of planes and cities to enjoy. I like older games to play at times, this one certainly fits the bill. I run it on my win 7 system. You can pick up a copy used and new on ebay or other sites for about $20 or less including shipping. If you are thinking about flight sims this is a cheaper alternative to newer ones, try it and decide if you like flight sims. I recommend a joy stick to play this game, much more fun and realistic.
