try to control the plane with you computer keyboard can be very difficult . other than that the game be totally awesome . all though I think they make the flight control a little more flimsy which can account for make it hard to control some of the plane in the game . even with these setback , I love Microsoft Flight Sim 2004 . the detail be more realistic than other version of the Flight Simulator . I take off from the Salt Lake City international airport and actually manage to land a 737 on the landing strip in Las Vegas . the 737 be my favorite plane because once you up in the air , you can put the plane into autopilot and sit to enjoy the view . have read the flight manual for the Boeing 737 , I can say that all the control be right where they suppose to on the plane . I also like to set the weather to thunderstorm . I find it more interesting to see lighting storm go on under I when I be 35,000 foot up ! if you look into take fly lesson this game will defiantly reminder you , there be a lot more to fly than just get the plane up in the air . Flight Simulator 2004 will give you a sure opportunity to fine tune you fly skill .
