I had the trial of X-plane, the physic's in the software are fantastic, however gameplay, graphics, controls etc are a bit sh*t. Might be a bit different with the full version.

I'd simply run windows through a emulator (VMware, parallels etc) and use Microsoft flight sim, can't beat that from past experience as it has pretty much ever add on available.
If you have to ask why, you'll never understand.

Agree with the above you cant beat Microsoft flight sim FSX.
Just dont go over the top and convert your kids room into a cockpit
But with all the add ons etc it can be a bt of a minefield.

I have already bootcamp'd my mac but the radion card is stable and I'm a bit lost on what to do to sort. Will have a look at that and maybe download a demo!
