The Falcon is (when you choose the high level) a fine simulator with really difficult(=realistic) missions. It will take time to learn to handle Falcon (a ~100 p manual), but it's worth it! The only drawback is a sorta digital handling, which is especially felt during landings. The F-18 has a nice, smooth touch (which tou don't need, as you can slam the plane down at strange angles and still walk away from it in one piece :-) ) Anton N.
