HI! I have FSX. I have mostly payware add-ons. I find it to be a fun game. i had it for over 3 years now. i have been playing FS since the 2002 came out. If you have one, tell me about yours. Wat kind of addons do you have? DO you have any questions about it? Tell me about it!

[MomoRacer]

Hi! I also have Fs2002, FS2004, and FSX. I run all sorts of add-ons. Do you use a joystick or some control method? I use a Saitek ST290 pro, got it @ walmart on sale for $15. I'm glad other people here like the flight sim series. :)

[woody92]

i love it too (fs2004) but i havent played it for ages!!

I Have CH Flight yoke and the Saitek rudder pedals. Its fun.

I've not played it in a long time.. I had quite a lot of photographic scenery and airport and traffic add-ons though.

I ADORE MSFS, like I fly every day :) Going to be an airline pilot soon enough :D

I have mainly freeware, but I got the Quality Wings Boeing 757 for xmas, it's amazing!! Waiting for my freeware A380 to come out though :)

Just completed a flight in the 752 now, (Delta 2009 Colours Winglets PW) DAL 176 MCO-ATL, FMS had a freaker as soon as I tried LNAV but I got it fixed :)

I am playing FSX right now.
The only addon I have is FSPassengers.
I have added a BA757 and a UA777 but I barely use them because they are tacky and unrealistic and are hard for me to use in my flying style.
I mostly do FSPax routes now and I primarily use the default 744.
Lets see...yea I like FSX, I just recently learned that you can do time acceleration so I won't have to be doing 12 hour flights on my comp anymore :P I can basically finish them in about 2 hours, which is pretty epic!

[maestro15]

Great! I have captainsim 757, 767 pmdg 747, and more. i suggest captainsim but quality wings are good for beginners. i recently did a flight from KSEA to KDFW on my cs 757 it was long and fun. my cruising was FL420.

[Aηdy]

I just installed this for the fun of it, I found the CD the other day.. yes graphics are set to maximum.

Im not talking about MSFS 95 or below. im talking about msfs2002 or higher. but thanks for this great photo!

[Aηdy]

I know, it's good for comparison though lol FSX with scenery packs is a million miles away from that.. just shows how it used to be!

[Antares]

Thats amazing to see how far the technology has come in the last 10 years.

[Aηdy]

Yeah it has come a very long way!

O!M!G! Look at them graphics! :O WOW... ^_^

I like MFS although I've just played the demo for X. :P

[Malcolm Tucker]

Thought I'd post some screen shots from my latest flight, one I just completed. From MIA - ATL, DAL 1996 :)

landing in ATL, for whatever reason, there was heavy wind shear on finals, and I managed to get it lined up eventually but if you look closely I have the elevators ready to go around just in case.

Love this, do a lot of UK domestic flights in the 737 or on props.

Anyone done a long haul flight in real time, I really don't see the point :P

I have loads of times. When the weather is so bad I can't go out or if I'm sick then I'll do long haul flights. Like I've done DUB-EWR, JFK-SFO, SIN-SYD etc.

I've gone around the world once too. I think the route was DUB-KEF-YYZ-ORD-BOI-SFO-HNL-GUM-NRT-PEK-HKG-DXB-LCA-ATH-PRG-MUC-LHR-DUB :D took over a week and a half lol

before uhh...this week (when i learned about time acceleration) i used to do long haul flights in a 744 all in real time.
I had done so many I cant remember but they include, KSFO to Sweden
KSFO to Keflavik, Hawaii, Anchorage, cross country from KSFO to Washington, Miami, Boston, and JFK.
Now that I use time acceleration I just did a flight from LHR to SYD in about..2 hours...less that that (landed in Changi first)

[woody92]

I have done alot of longhaul flight too (i have also done them in real life --as a passenger though--)

PonY

it sounds like you have downloaded most of these "payware" through torrent sights and limewire. because for you to have that many addons, you would need alot of money! Be honest. I admit i downloaded all my scenery through torrent websites

[PonY]

I do admit to some of my things Carenado to be exact was a torrent. But most of it, I have gotten over time. I learned buying your things is better because if you need to get help with it you can. Right?

[minicoopkart]

First I got FSX but then switched to 2004 for better frame rates. I play it a Macbook and its great. I have a ton of "payware" addons (torrents), like Fly Tampa, Aerosoft, Imagine Sim, etc., but my favorite is Colombia scenery since I love flying in Colombia and I'm originally from there
For aircraft addons I use Overland, PMDG, CLS, but I use mostly the aircrafts provided at Delta Virtual Airlines
For sounds I download them separately then add it to the planes
And my favorite addon is FSpassengers, which I actually paid for, totally worth it
