Looks amazing.  But I think the explosions need work and i hate the way the vehicles stop immediately once destroyed.

When I was I kid, I wanted to grow up and fly the A-10.  Close Air Support has to be the coolest job you can do in a plane.

Only RTFM IF you can't figure out the stuff with the point and click type of game playing.

I will read the manual and then print me a cheat card for the important stuff but honestly the A-10 even in its digital mode is still about as close to pure flying as possible in the modern USAF...at least that is what I have been told by a couple of guys I know.

So far I do like it... as a Beta it's not in to bad of shape...
The cockpit is clickable and the manual (650 Pages) so far looks good!

Just a heads up:

Known features that are not implemented / complete yet:

- Voice over messages (current are place holders)
- Multiplayer
- Aerial refueling
- Training missions
- New Mission Editor map system (DirectX instead of older OGL)
- F-15E weapons
- Old GUI music
- Much of the Nevada map is incomplete (Las Vegas, Groom Lake, building blocks, etc.)
- Most of the missions and campaigns have NOT been properly play tested and many bugs are known to exist
- AI flight radio messages
- Electrical system
- TGP/Mav slew rates according to sensor FOV
- and many, many more issues given that this is a very early Beta!

Been playing this since Saturday, and I highly recommend it. Although it is still in Beta testing, this will be a great sim once done.
