Well, let's get some reviews here ok guys ?
The first ones to buy it, please tell here if it's good or not :)

I purchased it and here's the ultra quick summary:
Same stuff as in FSP2004
Sounds are much improved (hostess says a load of different lines on entering cabin instead of just "Would you like some coffee captain".
more effects
better panel (although the text gets a little screwed up sometimes).
Quite a few new tools to enhance the product.
If you liked it on 2k4, get it for fsx - it was what was missing.
Anyone bought air hauler btw?

Thanks for the review Alexander, sounds like this could be a popular purchase for FSX simmers ;)
Do the passengers still scream all the time? They seemed to do this randomly in my FS2004 version - I guess we needed a better in flight film ;D

Only when I perform the Dive of Deathâ„¢ ;)
It's definately a product I would recommend to anyone, it really helps improve your flying by identifying certain problems such as overspeed, excess g forces, lights on 10k transition etc.
The fsx version has everything good from the first, expanded on.
I love the random failures too. Infrequent (with the exception of those I create such as lowering the flaps over their rated speed)
The economic mode is great too, gives purpose to the flights in much the same way as flying for a VA does - and best of all, you can do both at the same time.
Example: Today I have been reaquainting myself with flight 1's atr 72-500 and dropped the flaps too early on approach, shredding them. Had to declare an emergency and on landing, came in too hard and blew one of the tires. Co-pilot gave me a warning along the lines of "Careful captain, we've blown a tire, be prepared if she starts to pull to the side"
Then got saddled with a $10million repair bill for the aircraft with the option of paying all or taking 66% from the insurance company who would then put their rates up by 3%.
Aircraft only cost 17million to buy ;)
