A few other things to enhance the realism of FS2000:
- Rudder Pedals (largely ignored in today's sims).
- A good force feedback joystick, if you have the money
- Download the best panels and tweaks from <A HREF="http://www.flightsim.com" TARGET="_blank">www.flightsim.com</A> - which is completely free
- You can also get ATC and co-pilot sounds and addons for realism (free)
