Microsoft flight beta
« on: December 03, 2011, 05:03:49 PM »
MS is looking for beta testers for MS flight. The graphics seem to be pretty cool although it's just flying around kinda thing.

I'll definitely try it out. I'll have to wait until I can DL it on my desktop though. My laptop struggles with AH graphics. That would probably set my laptop on fire!  :bolt:

Tell them to add a p-61 and some other wwII aircraft and they can have my stick.

Ya they did, but from what i remember it wasnt too good. If i remember correctly, i believe it was called combat flight simulator and used the FS2002 engine models.
