Hi

I am looking to buy the full version of X-plane, however I am very interested in the capabilities of the plane beyond standard flying/landing. Furthermore, are the collisions realistic? I am under the impression the scenery is quite realistic as well, does this cover Dubai and such?

I am mainly interested in simulating flying a Stealth Bomber over Dubai and dropping a load. This would be worth my 30 dollars for repeated entertainment purposes.

Let me know...glad to be a part of the community here!

This makes me think of two possibilities: either your Disney channel cable feed is broken or you lost a bundle in Dubai real estate. You can drop a load anywhere not near me, as far as I'm concerned, but please remember to flush after the job is done.

The early Clancy-branded games--Ghost Recon, and Rainbow 6--focused on realism, sometime to the point of frustration with Rainbow 6. Not sure that's the case any more.
