I started with RealFlight G-nothing then bought the RF G-2 so I could use all of my friends upgrades. After a while they are all boring but the RF seems to have the best graphics, planes and fields. When I had to buy a new puter I lost all the upgrades so the G-2 lite is really boring!! Just like SS I use it to learn pattern and stunts. Much cheaper to replace the planes on the sim, faster too!!!!
