Sick....

Yeah, i have the 737! magnifique!

Well I do have to admit, the Space Shuttle is quite nice. Although you will never see me in FSX or X-plane in a Space Shuttle, you will see me in one in Orbiter 2010. Besides, all the airplanes in the list can be found as payware or freeware for FS2004 and FSX, so whats the benifit of switching?

I'm still not impressed with the 3D engine with X-plane, even after all of these updates and patches. It still reminds me of a watered down FS2002 version in terms of terrain poly's but with sharper and cleaner textures. They have a looooong way to go and a lot of work to do before I will even consider making the switch.

Well, I'm in the middle of making the switch. The terrain is like FS9 with better reflections. But the thing is that after you fly in X-plane, you'll really feel like FS aircraft are flying on rails. Flying in bad weather in X-plane makes a great difference in a/c behaviour unlike FS9 where even in severe turbulence you feel too certain about the a/c.
I'd say, give it a try.

I agree! I use XP9.60 (I also use FSX) and X-Plane has a big difference and when I stared out with a Cessna 172 in XP... I thought the FDE was To squrirly (Sensitive to turns and climbs) but I learned in my flight lessons to make small turns, and it made a large difference! So X-Plane is a bit more realistic and I love the Space dynamics! U can Fly Spaceship two!!!

And maybe one day project airbus will make their aircraft for x-plane.
