Yep.Better planes (baron,c208s) ,get GMAX,Better high res scenery.

But..if I would ask you do anything,add this little beauty to it:

http://www.anticyclone.be/active.html

goto bottom,to the activecamera pro,197kb-got new nexto it.


*Copy ActiveCameraPro.dll into the FS2002 modules folder.

*Copy ActiveCameraPro.cfg into the FS2002 root directory

Then go fly,goto the settings tab,actve camera pro,set head movement latency to .7,and enable internal view.

Now go fly in virtual cockpit view and enjoy

Thanks for the link.

I would called myself a Pro Simmer....as I have about 10 thousand hours over the 4 years.... Ok, I know I should not have said that..but I do it properly. I try the 747 into LHR with wind and two engines out. Well, not like real life I know, but still..pretty fun when not reading the books.

Topic Starter...The difference between FS2002 and FS2002 PE...is that PE comes with A Flight Instructor Program so you can act as the instructor over the internet and have two people flying the plane...Changing control from one person to the other. Whatever happens in the cockpit, on any switch, shows on both screens depending on who made the change being the person in control.

That is why it is Pro Edition. Second...there are more challenging planes so they say. IMHO (in my honest opinion), I dont think that saying that is true. A cessna, on FS, is just the same as the 737. The autopilot is the same just looks different, and the "feel" of the planes is the same....well, you can make it the same.

Thats why I stand firm in the ground of "Flight sim is NOT as real as it gets"

Hope thins helps...Smooth SIMULATED Skies

Dan..

ps - For downlaods...check out www.fs2002.com AND/OR www.simviation.com

Wont get better

Well..

www.projectopensky.com

Best 747-400 the game is ever likely to see,they make the best freeware msfs2k2 aircraft,the flight dynamics have input from real world airliner pilots current on the 744..add it to a PSS soundset and panel and its about as realistic many will ever get to the experience.

Nice one dudes. I learned a lot from that. I'll certainly be using those links. Sure It's not like the real thing, the only real thing is the real thing, you git me drift. Almost lost me self there.

It does however get you thinking the right way, which will help heaps when in the real thing.
