DV8jr. is into flight sims, I'll pass the link on to him

Its kind of hard to start off(very steep learning curve) with but if you put some effort in its kinda fun.

Teenage gamers have the time and the zitsflesh to deal with steep learning curves - would that he put the same degree of concentration into his studies.

I'm sure there's another thread on that somewhere here....

I am going to have to try out this new version, 20 years can make a lot of difference.
