Sadly all the flight sims i have are so old they aren't even available anymore. Heck most don't work because the operating system i have is too new for them. Had some cool ones in the past though.

I have MS FlightSim 95... :lol: It was fun in the day but really not worth it today. I also have Jane's F/A-18 but i never got into it since it didn't work well with either of the joysticks i own despite claiming compatibility. Other than that I usually have a fairly up-to-date copy of orbiter on my computer...

And it's probably the best shuttle sim out there. It doesn't have airplanes though.

It has very bad airplane simulation! A modern combat sim would be like Lock On.
