MicroSoft FlightSimulator2004. It's very accurate in terms of real flight. It has lots of different aircraft to choose from. The terrain and graphics are very good. It has flight analysis. You can plan flights just like when flying people-carrying airplanes if you want. You can customize the weather. If you want to pretend that you're flying an R/C plane you can use the view from the control tower to fly. You can fly "outside" the plane with a view like you would get with a chase plane. The aircraft react very much like real planes do. It's MUCH cheaper than any of the R/C sims, and doesn't require a special cable or box to use it. Anyone agree with me? Could anyone possibly disagree with me?

MFS sux! obviously you do not fly real airplanes! Its ok though, you are not the first NON-PILOT to stand up and say that it is "accurate" and "flys like real" ( I always wonder how they knwo if they have never flown Full Scale!)

On another poitn, I agree with other in saying that MFS is absolutly USLESS in learning to fly RC.... I would say it will do next to NO good.

although i dont think much of FMS, it is free and MUCH better than MFS to learn to fly R/C.
