I just got an email from the Microsoft Flight team, announcing that they are now accepting applications for beta testing. I'm signed up, fingers crossed.

It's worth a shot to all you flight simmers out there. Follow the link below and hit the sign-up button.

You probably would get bored really quick if you're just randomly flying around. You can have a much more in depth experience by joining and flying for a virtual airline. There are virtual airlines out there for any and every type of pilot.

"Start Exploring For Free

After downloading Microsoft Flight for free, players can jump into hours of exciting gameplay on the Big Island of Hawaii.

In addition, players who sign in to their Games for Windows – LIVE account automatically receive additional free content, including the legendary Boeing Stearman plane, supplementary missions, and access to Achievements and an Online Pilot Profile. Those looking to deepen their experience can purchase and download additional content that adds new aircraft, regions and customization options. The frequently released new content for Microsoft Flight includes daily aerocache challenges and updates that make every flight unique and fun."

So i just found this on Flight's website.

I was worried at first. lol! I just hope that they don't completely destroy the sim aspects. I like the idea of purchasing different regions, as long as they come complete with proper terrain mesh details and textures as the payware scenery were for the previous sims.

Nice.

I'd like to practice takeoffs and landings from Piarco and ANR airports just for the fun of it.
