Falcon 4 with a thrid-party addon (Freefalcon, openfalcon, etc.) Totally second this choice. I also recommend you have a full flight simulation cockpit with real MFDs. |

Falcon Allied Force is what I run. Nothing against Free Falcon, though.
Online software retailers are good places to get them from. A well-stocked computer software store should have Allied Force on the shelves. |

Funny you mention this now.
I was messing around on the xbox 360 and saw a demo for sturmovik THAT IS OUT RIGHT NOW. The full game will be released later this year. It's not bad, but I usually suck at playing the games. I may pick it up depending on how good I get at the demo. Check out this trailer: Sturmovik comming out in September |

Id say you have to go on line to get good flight time-aceshigh is brutal sim-sometimes 1k people on line in 3-4 arenas-also historical missions with 100 on each side playing
http://www2.hitechcreations.com/frindex.html here are some screenies from the game-check it out-learning curve is huge thou but at least there are no cheaters game been around about 18 years or so and it gets better all the time you can get movies to check out on the site

Theres one comin'
It will be part of the Digital Combat Simulation series or DCS. From the same people that made LOCK ON. They feature clickable cockpits kind of like Falcon 4.0 AF. I have DCS:Blackshark and it is more involved then the multi-platform LOMAC sim. Each of the DCS entries will be dedicated to a single Aircraft and feature a dynamic campaign that LOMAC did'nt have. There will also be a DCS:Apache with the AH-64a. The only thing i dont like about the DCS sims is that they require internet activation and use STARForce (STARFarce)  You get 8 activations. If you uninstall you dont have to reactivate atleast, but you would if you move it to a different PC. Hopefully a future patch will get rid of that crap.

Where is the best place to get this? I've been wanting this for a long time. And perhaps one more dumb question.. can you explain what MFD is? Thanks. |

The best WWII flight sim EVER, hands down. Lots of support, online squadrons, and constantly updated by players. IL-2 ftmfw, all others are crap. |

Quoted: It's kind of sad that combat flight sims are dead as a genre. Agreed. I think that back in the day, PC gaming was mainly for people who weren't afraid to tackle a game with a high learning curve, and that required lots of expensive equipment (flight sticks, throttles, rudder pedals). The continuing popularity of first-person shooters, where all you need is a mouse & about 30 seconds of instruction, pretty well killed off the incentive for game companies to spend their resources on developing high-end flight sims. IL2-Sturmovik 1946 FTW, by the way. Jets and missiles are cool, but nothing compares to zooming down on a Bf-109 and shredding it with eight .50-cal machine guns.  |

IL2 and its many updates is an excellent game.
Keep an eye out for its upcoming successor, Storm of War, which should have 2 sub-titles: Battle of Britain and one about the Korean War. Speculation at the moment is that eventually they'll link up and the overall timespan of the game will be 1930s-1960s or so. |

When and IF this thing gets released, it's either gonna be absolutely badass, or a complete let down. For now, IL-2 is still the game to beat. Nothing comes close. |
