Hi,I just bought FSX yesterday,and I am very new to this.I have been playing FS9 for years.I have recently seen the carrier ops,and wanted to get in on the action.So my question is do I need fsx acceleration, also for the carrier ops,and in air refueling, I have seen on youtube,or just FSX,and whats the difference between the two advantage wise.Thanks:salute:
 
you need Acceleration to fully appreciate FSX...

you install over the clean fresh FSX install as Acceleration includes SP2
if you have addons in FSX - you will have to reinstall them

follow one of the many instruction threads on how to best install as you can encounter 'anomalies' if you are careless.

Afterward - you will have ADI engine boost for air racing, a functioning helicopter winch and new helo, carrier ops including catapult and trap wire functionality etc...

You don't have FSX if you don't have Acceleration..trust me - I have used FSX Gold standalone with SP1, FSX Gold patched to Sp2, and with Acceleration

there is no way I would go back
