ah, well you could call me a flight sim tourist lol, i dont ever "fly" the plane, i just stick it on the outside view, use the keyboard an mouse... i've got hundreads of hours on my flight sim and i still dont know how to land and take off properly. with fsx (or 9) a good cloud and terrain program and tileproxy you can pretty much fly where ever you want and enjoy it like someone else is flying for you an you just look out the window. and your actually looking at the terrain as it is in real life. Want to fly around new zealand? go ahead, want to go canyon flying in an f18? sure no prob, just turn off crash detection first ;) hawaii? alps? check out mt everest? meby you'll even see the base camp there. Flight sim isnt all about the plane anymore as the screen shots should attest. welcome to the days of the virtual tourist.
