We have strong evidence that Microsoft will release two versions of the upcoming Flight Simulator X, as they did with Flight Simulator 2002. On the Canadian Aviation Expo 2006, they have put up a big poster featuring the "Deluxe Edition" box art, suggesting that a "Standard Edition" will also be released. It's not very clear what the difference between the two editions are... we are still waiting for an official announcement for Microsoft. Amazon.co.uk is now taking pre-orders for both FSX Standard and Deluxe Editions. They sell for £44.99 and the release date is set to 27 October, 2006. The prices and release date are still unconfirmed and may change in the following months. Keep tuned for more news!! |

Project Open Sky has some great news for us! They have recently released the Boeing 737-600 model, which is the third aircraft in their 737NG series. This new model already counts with 7 liveries, and guess what... everything is free! All POSky models and liveries are available free of charge on their website. The 737-800 is to be released soon -- keep tuned! Another important release by Project Open Sky was an official preview of the B767 Virtual Cockpit! This much expected project will be the first virtual cockpit released by the company, and quite possibly one of the best freeware cockpits ever! No release date has been set. |

MegaCITY Phoenix is developed using high resolution aerial photographies, which results in more clear and crisp ground textures.
