X-Plane is good fun, but you need a stick / yoke and pedals to really get the most out of it. Lots of great addons, too.

Looks nice but installer keeps coming up with 'write error, try again' then nothing happens, try the torrent and Transmission says it's invalid.

Then I tried a Boeing 747 in Extreme Landings and totally mashed it, killed everybody on board, all my fault!

Stick to simulators. Much less mess....

Just got X-Plane 10, grabbed my son's joystick (not illegal if you're his Dad and he keeps schtum) and first go, took-of in, circled-aound in, and landed perfectly in a Cessna.

I thought, piece of piss this pilot nonsense.

Then I tried a Boeing 747 in Extreme Landings and totally mashed it, killed everybody on board, all my fault! Think I over stretched myself but I got mixed up between 'up' and 'down'.

I'm hooked though!
