So, its too arcadey for me, you are not instructed anywhere on how to contact ATC, radio settings or anything, but its all there. I'm guessing they're keeping the beta simple for now, one of the "challenges" was to use VOR navigation to go somewhere.

It's a sim under the hood, at least.

Is it multi threaded?

See my specs. I should be fine given this is a 2006 title.

It seems to be, but iirc it didn't perform very well on AMD.

you were never instructed on how to do that in any of the other ones though really? its all on the cockpit theres buttons that look like a radio tower and you hit that and you do it all. I jsut want to see how it performs and if its CPU limited again or if its more GPU now. FSX only usedl ike 65% of my 470 and like 50% of all my cores on my 2500k
