I'd say don't hesitate to buy one. It's really useful and fun to play with while it's raining outside!
I bought a realflight G3 for 229$ CAN at www.greathobbies.com and I simply love it!

Input FMS on a google search and have a look. It is a safe download.

if you check tower hobbies the sim is 199 + there throwing a 30$ add on #1 in, and a 20$ gift cert. when I got mine they were just giving the add on #1 as a extra, the sim really rocks, all kinds of planes and there are add ons and down loads you can get from www.Knifeedge.com as well .
I also got all the add ons because I am into warbirds and wanted the complete set up, all together about 300$ the downloads add allot of features to the sim as well.

I got an FMS flight simulator from bphobbies. $29.95 + shipping. Works fine. Downloaded 648 planes from various websites for it.

Its been awhile, but I paid 200 to 250 for the original Real Flight. After several years, I upgraded to G2 for another 200 only to have G3 come out a few months later, and that doesn't include the add ons. I'm not into 3D and I have not bought G3. I find G2 sufficient for my needs. If I need more realisim, I'll go to the field.
