SPECIAL - Building a computer: So, you want to build a new computer to run Flight Simulator better, or your old computer is just too old and needs to be replaced. I'll attempt to give you a guide to building a computer, as I go about building a new computer using the latest in video card technology, Nvidia's 8800GTX, and Intel's brand new Core 2 QX6700 quad-core CPU.

Blackhawk by Jordan Moore: Jordan Moore has produced a quite convincing Blackhawk for FS2004. (http://www.racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?p=184195)
PMDG Boeing 747-400 and 747-400F: PMDG's 747 is one of the most carefully created addons in a long-while. We look at the base 747-400, and the addon Freighter package. In total, this is worth almost USD$85 - a staggering amount - even more than Flight Simulator itself. Does it justify the expense? (http://www.racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16197)
DodoSim.com Advanced Bell 206C JetRanger III: DodoSim.com have produced a work of art in this Advanced Bell 206C JetRanger III simulation for FS2004. Check out the full review here. (http://www.racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15932)
Iris Simulations Mikoyan Gurevich MiG-29 Fulcrum: Iris Simulations have recreated the famous MiG-29, the back-bone of Soviet airpower and defense during the cold-war, and now popular for its abilities just about everywhere across the world - even in the West where it served as part of the Luftwaffe.

Flight1 Flight Environment 2004: Does my weather look bad in this? Not really - Flight Environment 2004 is probably one of the most amazing transformations of FS weather and water visuals I've ever seen. (http://racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15753)
Pilots Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird aka Senior Crown: The famous Mach 3 recon aircraft that conducted her operations with invincibility. Senior Crown is now available in her wonderful glory for FS2004. I take a look at the Pilots version of the SR71. (http://racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15729)
Project Opensky 737-800: A quick look at Posky's impressive new Boeing 737-800. (http://racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15537)
ActiveSky 6: The latest and greatest in weather simulation from the Hifisim people. (http://racerplanet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15404)
Reviews coming up:
Ground Environment 2006 and FS Global SE: Two reviews in one! We examine each product on its own merits, then explain why we think the two compliment each other to make a fantastic, general FS terrain update.
DF Boeing 727: Classic, but smaller tri-engine airliner.
Tupolev Tu-154B2: A 1970s Russian tri-engine workhorse, originally designed and built by the Tupolev Design Bureau, re-created for FS2004 by Project Tupolev. No FMCs, EFIS, Autoland or INS in this bird - just raw skill to both fly and navigate this aircraft is required. With what is arguably the most detailed systems programming of any FS aircraft, along with a faithful, and fully operational reproduction of the HBY navigation system, is this the ultimate analogue aircraft for FS?
