Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Fun:
very important to note this is an add on game, easy to install and great fun to play.
Graphics are great, only warning, you will wish you were a real pilot so you could make this flight for real.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Fun:
Installation is very simple and , if you wish, a few clicks and you can be flying your Commander on a long series of flights from pole to pole. The route is essentially through the Americas and personally I would have liked the option to do some sightseeing in the likes of Europe but that does not take away from what is a well thought out and executed piece of software. Yes, you can have hours of , well, flying between stops but this niche product will I believe go down very well with those who love the detail and planning of such virtual trips.
Didn't affect FSX on my machine or indeed cause any hiccups. So,if a long distance trip is your idea of heaven,customise your Commander, fill the tanks, fire the engines and off you go.
4/5 as I would have liked more route and new aircraft options.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
Fun:
OK, I confess this was given to my Flight Simulator X regular using son. He is the one who can get the planes into the air, program the autopilot and deal with the instructions from various air traffic controllers. Landing any plane from a Sopwith Pup right up to the Airbus 380 seems to be a doddle for him.
I gave him the add-on and let him get cracking. After a couple of hours flying the conclusions were as following -
Graphics - well up to the mark, although initially the aircraft appeared as a wireframe only. When that was sorted out everything looked well up to the high standards that I have seen elsewhere in FSX and other makers add-ons.
Scenery - again as good as any I have seen elsewhere.
Sounds - Nothing odd or out of place here. I do not know this aircraft in real life, so I am assuming it is an accurate synthesis of its engines.
Fun - well if flying over miles of tundra and snow is your bag go for it and buy right now. If seeing clear landmarks, such as houses and roads to give you a sense of purposeful motion goes then perhaps this is not going to tick the big boxes. This is where it lost my interest as an armchair passenger. However this was not really a surprise as this could be guessed from the descriptions on the box and on Amazon.
This is a well made and competent add-on that I can see a certain niche market for, it lives up to all of the promises given.

Nice add on, if a little limited
Just to get one thing clear; the installation is very simple, and quick! I'm running it on Windows 7 64-bit, which seems to have the most problems in terms of installing old games... Read more

This is great if you're getting it just for the plane
As many of you who have bought products from this developer before, you will know they aren't always exactly the best FS add-ons money can buy. Read more

Got FSX? Get this!
Needless to say, this add-on lets you fly pole-to-pole. All 20,000 miles over 52 legs! And you get to fly a plane with skids. I love the realistic graphics. Read more

Poles ahead !!!!
Hopefully, everyone will know that you need to have the orginal game to use this add-on product as this is not a stand alone game. Read more

Unless you have Microsoft FSX, Don't buy this!
This is not a standalone game - it needs FSX. It is an addon, and will not work without it. That said, it's a good game, easy to load and use.

Won't disappoint fans
Just be careful that if you want to buy this, you will need to already have the original software, as this "pole to pole" package is an add-on. Read more
