This does look really good especially with the Simcoders embedded. Watching the video though the engine start sequence doesn't match the POHs I have.

I've been flying the RealAir SF260 as my new trainer and there is a lot of good info out there about the unique qualities of the real aircraft.

Still, I might end up with this one.

I also have the FSX model and think it is the cat's pajamas, but this one is even more stunning...
