Default The box under the tree....just maybe

I think that my wife has purchased me Real Flight G3 for Christmas - not sure. She doesn't know anything about RC, so I hope she got the right thing.

Does anybody have the box dimensions of G3 so I can measure the wrapped box to confirm my suspicions?

*Big mischievous grin*

Well, I havent measured it yet, but what about the dimensions of Aerofly Pro?

The mystery box is roughly 13 inches long, 9 or 10 inches tall, and about 4 or 5 inches deep.

She likely went to the LHS (hobbytownUSA) and talked to the staff and made a decision on that. What simulator product/s do they carry?

Well, after a bit of searching on the net, I am pretty confident that it isn't G3 as its not that shape. But, I found a picture of the Aerofly Pro box, and it is basically that shape. The only clue she is giving me is "I hope I got the right one, you can exchange it if needed", whatever "IT" is.

This mystery brings back the child in me....I love it!
