I'm not sure realism was something the director was looking for.

 

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  For example, being ex-Navy, I'm painfully aware of the mistakes in "Top Gun", but I still enjoy watching it.  Same with a lot of Irwin Allen's work from many years ago.  If the story and writing are decent, it works.  If they aren't, well, let's not tempt the mods to censor and just say it doesn't.

Strangely enough, I flew it at work, officially.  Many tech people used it to test whether a PC was 'IBM Compatible', and FS was better at this than anything else.  If the computer would run Flight Simulator, it would run all other IBM PC software.

My wife is going to get pretty angry if it isn't darn near close by then.

No matter how loud potential customers, employers, or bosses scream, the angry wife still gets the fastest response...
