Frustratingly this old heap of junk has the longest and highest quality routes out of any simulator to this day. While the graphics and physics of newer simulators get better and better, the routes only become shorter with each passing release. If you want to run a high speed train uninterupted for 200km, you need to go back to 2001.
Just for the time and memories with this thing, I want to give 5 stars, but especially the larger, more complex planes have some obvious, inexcusable bugs that were never fixed (e.g. the Boeing 737-800 engines can't be started in accordance to the game's own checklist) and the dynamic weather system relies on a server that has since shut down. It's obviously intended to make you cough up more money for more accurate DLC planes.
