Ok. Got it. Installed it. Have the live account.
First impressions are so-so. Still getting used to it.
The Icon and Stearman flight models are very basic. Simple to fly.
The scenery looks a bit cartoonish form the air, but not too bad, better on the ground.
The water is really good. Much better than FSX.

[Gibbage]

The Stearman and Icon are simple aircraft by there nature, so they should be simple to fly. The RV-6 and Maule are MUCH more complex. Its a question of if its worth 15-20$ to find out if its complex enough for your liking. Skip the P-51. Thats the best advice I can give. Pass it on.

If MS release an SDK for this, would someone be good enough to let us all know? Thank you, and I'll look at it then.

Sadly there is no released SDK, and I have a feeling there wont be at least for some time.

Downloaded Flight last night, set it up with all my controls X52, Yoke and Pedals etc,
completed the two missions and then flew free flight for about one hour around the Island in the A5 and the Stearman.

I think the graphics are poor compared to what has been acheived in FSX, spray effect when landing on water is very good
but overall the water is too reflective and bright. The land looks as stated by someone else to be a bit cartoonish!!! and trees
in the distance are a bit shimmery, not at all like I thought it would be.

This is not a Simulation! not the ultimate we were led to believe, it's only yet another money spinning Game for Microsoft.

I now have that same old bad taste in my mouth that you get when you have been led up the garden path yet again by you know who,
only to find it's full of weeds and Bull S**t as alwaysl !!!!

It has now been removed from my computer and it will not be returned, I can see years of enjoyment ahead with FSX and the work acheived by the
devs in the last twelve months alone has been amazing , the graphics are now superb and well worth the money we pay.

I've been saying it all along too.....I've even been chastized about my unkind words.......its a game and thats all it is. If I want a game/sim I'll go with DCS.

[Cratermaker]

I played it all of 15 minutes this morning. Not enough to give it a fair shake. I'll mess around with it some more tonight.

[Francois]

Now DCS.... there's something else..... at least their combatsims are complex enough to keep one busy for quite some time !
