I bought version 3 - I think it was - 10 years ago and played it for years - so now I decided to get the current copy. I still love it. You really get your money's worth with this one, since there are endless combinations of scenery, aircraft, weather conditions, etc. One word of caution, it does require a good computer to run this program.

A GREAT game...

I spent a lot of time reading a lot of reviews, some good and some bad... but I finally decided to buy this game. I never played a flight simulator before and I was suprised with the quality of the graphics. They are not too good when close to the ground, but when you fly up (10,000+ feet) you feel like you are really in a plane. My favorite places to fly are around the tropics at sunset, because the water is clear and the sky is really nice looking. If you are hesitatent to buy, it is worth the full price.

As Real as it Gets!

FS2k2 is even better than all of its predecessors. The best features of it are a new air traffic control system, an improved GPS system, improved virtual cockpit (a feature that was in FS98, but not FS2k), and a new seaplane (Cessna Grand Caravan Amphibian) and Boeing 747. One thing I wished Microsoft had improved was the quality of the jet planes, as well as put liveries from real-world airlines. The latter can be solved by visiting any flight sim website. One bad thing about FS2k2 is that the Concorde is gone. I was able to pull out the Concorde from FS2k and install it in FS2k2, but it does have a couple of glitches. If you are a big flight simmer, make sure you visit [URL] and download more planes and other features. Oh, and make sure you get AFCAD and TrafficTools, by Lee Swordy, and AITM, by Thomas Molitor, which are necessary utilites when using add-ons. See you in the virtual skies!

Great Flight Sim

I think this is a great game for someone who wants to understand the basics of flying and have a go at many different types of aircraft. It is realistic enough to make you feel like you're there and sense the movement and power of the plane being simulated. I only gave it 3 stars for fun because how much fun is a flying sim when you can't shoot down or race anyone?

Great fun on the computer

I am not the typical "gamer" but this software provides loads of entertainment and instruction. I highly recommend it. I selected this version rather than the updated latest release because it was less hardware intensive. Really...who needs near HDTV graphics for a little rest and relaxation?

I think This game is okay,IF you have the right components in your computer. To get the most out of this game,you need a good mainboard,
sound card, and video card.I have used this game quite a bit,and have
some experience with computers.The graphics are ok, but as I said, you
need to have a fairly good system to run it to it's max simulating
capability.I have a copy of FlightSim 2004, and will be installing it
in the near future. I promise, I'm not trying to sound negative, but
if you want to get a good system, get FS2004, and you'll save time and money. =)

MS Flt Sim 2002 is another example of how Microsoft continues to improve this line with each new release.
I have used MS Flt Sims since it was first released.
I am a commercial pilot and find this version useful and relistic to actual flight.
I recommend this version for those who want to learn how to fly as well as previous version users.
I use this version as well as version 2004 and X.
This is a great deal as it offers an inexpensive way to get into flying.
You will probably get hooked and upgrade to later versions.

My dad is a liscenced pilot. I let him try out Flight Simulator 98 for a while. Despite slight handling flaws, he thought it was pretty accurate. He was most amazed by the fact that very small and local airports are represented perfectly, along with exact replicas of real world landscapes. The graphics back then were not the best, but I am hoping that the graphics in this game will help bring out the large strides in gaming technology from then to now.

I got flight fs2002 in december and i sill play it 2 times a day. The visuals are the same as real life. There are more planes then fs2000 and now washington dc is in the game. there are over 21,000 airports to choose from and if u just got the game u can set it to easy mode so u don't crash. Also there is on-line and network gaming so u can play with the friends who have fs2002. Now u can talk with the airports with the air traffic controler feature. There are a lot of flight lessons u can use to get started. Also there is one plane that microsoft don't tell u about, and i works just like the others. Over all flight simulator 2002 is the best flight sim you can get.
