Pros
Pro Forensically faithful simulator in most of its vehicles
The flight model for the planes in this game are recreated so faithfully that it could be used for military training. So much, that you may need several days to learn to fly each aircraft(and this is a pro for hardcore sim fans).
Know any positive aspects of this option?
Cons
Con Buggy
On steam store there are several reviews that state an abundance of bugs, from flaps not working the way they should, to landing wheels not deploying. There are also complains about lack of optimization and about the developer not being very active because of its involvement with other games.

Do not start using this until your sure you can comit the time it takes to learn this simulator. Best advice is to do the training until your able to run thru that with no issues.

A free realistic combat flight simulator with a steep learning curve that also has (paid) ground vehicles, ships and choppers.
