I get the impression "MS FLIGHT" will do very little for serious flight simmers. The graphics may improve but I reckon Microsoft want to bring FLIGHT to the masses. In order to do this they will most likely dumb down flight dynamics and other complexities within the program. I definitely feel that this will be more of an attempt at Gran Turismo in the sky than the previous Flight Simulator theme. Remember, MS want all of their games to cross their many platforms, X-Box live, W7 mobile etc. I wouldn't be uninstalling FSX just yet. The future is lovely graphics and audio but much less "skill" to get the job done. I visualize a new batch of "expert pilots" registering with pprune.
