Pros: Personal Opinion, possibly the best SIM on the market, easy to learn and set up
Cons: Finicky with Windows and ATI drivers, fine under Linux with same, and perfect on a Mac

In my opinion possibly the best SIM on the market. Out of the box dynamic scenery, great flight model, works on the majority of hardware and operating systems supported are Windows, Linux and MacOS, from the same set of disks. And the free aircraft and scenery is growing by the day, and of a very high standard. Payware aircraft are incredible, the attention to detail is mind blowing, such as the P-38 Lightning and Hawker Hurricane. I have both, and I can vouch for them. The advertising for the Hurricane is that it pushes the detail of X-Plane to the limit, and my experience is so, without killing the SIM, to an unusable frame rate.
In my books a must have for anyone serious or wnating to get serious about SIMMING.
