Advantages: Good graphics, multiplayer, landmarks, user friendly, fun Disadvantages: Requires a good computer, flight dynamics
is very fun as well as you can fly for fun with other players or fly serioulsly and share aircraft.
However, for the more serious flight simmers and pilots, I would highly recommend X-plane 8 instead but if you are new to flight sims or just want more fun then buy FSX.
FSX standard comes on 2 DVDs for installation and once it is installed you will not require the CD to run it. Full installation takes up 15GB so you have to have some hard drive space. The deluxe version of FSX has more detailed airports, glass cockpit planes and the ability to act as tower controller in multiplayer.
FSX does need to be registered to run in full mode and this can be done online or through a touch-tone phone.
FSX programmes the joystick settings so you can just 'plug and play' and I would highly recommend a joystick or usb yoke.

Peppa Pig
The World of Peppa Pig
As many of you may have already guessed from some of my other reviews ? my two year old daughter absolutely loves Peppa Pig. Unlike many other programmes she likes, I actually enjoy this one too (after seeing it over and over daily how can I not start to like it!) and as of yet, I have not got to the point where I am wanting to throw the television out of the window whenever it is on which is a really great sign!

Advantages: Educates on the subject effectively Disadvantages: is only based on 'facts'
Flight 93 is something that I do not believe we will ever fully understand, not because of our limitations to cope with the facts but because the facts will not in my opinion ever be revealed to us.

Not because I want to spoil it for you, but because the plot is not a surprise ...
