Flight simulators are very processor intensive and so is WINDOWS. The two
together are a bad mix. Just for fun I tried running FALCON AT under 
WIN3 with some very amusing (and unusable results). So far, I think
windows is great for things like DTP and drawing programs like DESIGNER and
little else.

I'd be very surprised to see a decent flight game run under windows (
maybe a 486 with ultra fast video).
