The MS Flight Sim has been in my hot little hands for about 3 weeks now.  It
is an excellent simulation, seems to work as advertised, and provides great fun.
Very much worth checking out.  I purchased it at a regular ol' computer store.
It is the only flight simulator I have seen that comes close to providing 
something close to instrument flying.  If anyone would like a review of same,
please let me know thru the net.  i have been in software quality assurance
for the last 8 years. (honk, honk).
