Nice content again. smiley - smiley I like that last paragraph, it's a real good ending.

~ANYWAY~, you know how I don't like all-lowercase (even though my name is iaoth, which makes me some kind of a hippo-critic, whatever that is smiley - winkeye), and it could use some headers (and perhaps subheaders) like "A very brief history". In addition, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to actually mention some of the games, since that information might be outdated before this Entry makes into the Edited Guide. On the other hand, how could one possible write an Entry about flight simulators and then ~not~ mention some of them? I dunno. smiley - erm

actually i wrote this one before the orange one. i also found it of less quality, but if you like the content, i'll tidy it up :D
i'll put a disclaimer in with the references to the sims i named, something like at the time of writing these were fairly hot.
also, the ones i named all stem from a long line of similarly named predecessors and will probably spawn successors with similar names too (falcon V for example)

There are still some typos left, and you could use some s in the list of simulators. But these are peanuts!

This is a great entry, and you should take it to Peer Review, now!

Alas, seeing you haven't been around for some time, I shall be doing that in two weeks time smiley - winkeye
