Well, just to not answer your question, I prefer X-Plane:
http://www.x-plane.org/
I found the instruments in MS Flight Sim too jerky and lacking in detail, which was a bit of a pain. The panels in X-Plane have much greater detail and move very smoothly.
X-Plane doesn't have quite as many navaids as MS, but they can be added manually if needed. No scenery either, but basic scenery can be downloaded and added. You'll be flying in clouds anyway
I haven't tried Jeppesen's, but a PPRuNe search should dish up a few sim discussions.
