MS FlightSim Question.

Hi

I want to get the MS team to change these guys in Flight Sim. I know they're very famous in the US, but how about here in Europe. Could some of you answer a few quick questions:

1) Do you know who Rod Machado or the Kings are? Do you only know of them through Flight Sim?

2) Does it matter that you don't know who they are? Whay I mean is, is the training stuff good anyway and it doesn't make a difference if the instructor is a known aviation expert or not.

3) Do you like them? Could they be improved?

4) Would it add much to your experience if a local aviation expert was used instead? Maybe a big school in England or France could prepare material that's more European based. If you know of the big/best schools let me know. Would Oxford be a good choice for the UK?

5) That leads me to my last question, what really makes FlightSim stand out as a US product? Is it the training?

If there's anything else you think of please include it.

I know it sounds like a long shot, but I know guys int he US who have managed to get changes made like this.

Thanks for your help.
