Hello all,

I'm looking into buying a cheap copy of the ''Flight Simulator X''. I've seen it at a Local PC store for £20, but I decided against it in the end.

I'm in the mood for playing it. Anyone got it....

Would be handy if its from the UK, although I'll allow else where if the shipping isnt a pain.

Make sure you have a joystick lying around... playing it with the keyboard is nasty:laugh:
Seriously, you can't make a clean ILS approach with the arrow keys.

don't know if you know about it, but there is a free flight simulator that you can download. It's called Flight gear. http://www.flightgear.org/

I like it alot, it plays much like FSX.

Looks good - But I'm on a monthly download limit. How big is it, I might be able to fit it on my college USB stick and download it whilst I'm at college.

200MB maybe, not too bad really.

I was just about to download it but all mirrors are un-avalible. Will try again later.
