I know u need a pretty fast machine and I have read x plane runs better on slower machines. Also I have read plane has better scenery modeling and a better physics model. I'll be mostly using this to stay sharp on instrument approaches by flying stars approaches And departures. But it would be nice to fly around in a sr71 sipping java in my living room. :-)
Thanks in qdvanxe
Slipped,

I use X-Plane for procedural and scanning purposes exclusively and have found it sufficient. I prefer it over MSFS.
