It will gradually changed someone's perspectives I think.  Having multi-displays using WidevieW and those operating gauges, plus thousands airports may be the answer for some of us who just love to taste a sweet of navigation system and graphics.  Maybe, Project Magenta will catch up with this FS Falcon and launch some of their new products to make a good match before summer.. then you may have to think about it over again!

See those screen shots?  Just like sitting in our same viper pits in F4. Some of the pics (like the cockpit) are just identical to what we have, aren't they?

But hey!  Albert, I'm still standing on your side :)  Just some pros and cons to share here.

It sounds like the combination of that and our F16 pit will turn out like
one of the typical simulator pit you find at airshows where it has flashy
displays and great construction, but it can only do a few simple bomb drop
and midair refueling.

Nevertheless, the ability to use multiple monitors for view displays and
have loads of other things to drive the cockpit are tempting... but I am a
die hard falcon online mp fan. I will be hard to convince to fly solo
looking at multiple views doing midair refueling again and again :)

They didnt mention anything about a2g radar and wont be able to drop guided
weapons... the question is... even if u can drop bombs on the ground... will
there be any "target of opportunity" to hit in FS2k2? :) I really dont know
since I never got too deep into FS2k2.

Finally, a dynamic campaign engine....umm.... I think I will stick with F4.
