Well, I installed FC2 and it works great, a very nice sim, nice scenery, looks great, been flying it quite a bit, if only I hadn't have had that bad experience with FC1 I could have been playing with it for ages. Dug out my spiral bound manual and even ordered the tactical map. Got a lot to learn, looking forward to having my ass handed to me in multiplayer! :)
Even got a m8 to buy FC2 to play multiplayer with, wish I'd tried it out sooner.
So, Frostie, looks like you were right.
Cheers,
Corker.
