    I usually like to up the ante a bit with bad weather or poor visibility, but I know what you mean. One of my most satisfying gaming moments ever came flying FS2000. I quickly plotted a course to a tiny island with an airfield off the coast of Maine. I set the ceiling at 50 or 100 feet and visibility to half a mile or something like that, flew a cessna 185 on instruments with no GPS through pea soup for half an hour and then descended below the clouds when I thought I should be approaching the island. Nothing. My fuel was starting to get iffy. Had I already passed the island? Next stop the Azores? If I was going to head back to the mainland I had better do it soon... And then there were the airport lights. Landed and switched off and listened to the rain for minute. Wow, I was chuffed.

    Yep. And several add-on liveries are availble as well.
    Nice.

    Good tip on Multigrab, Apache. I've been using Fraps, and it's fine, but I do get a one second pause every time I grab a shot. I really like some of Martin Wright's other stuff, so I'll check it out.
