Now, nobody can really answer this question, so I'm just looking for an educated guess as an answer. Based on any previous Flight Sim development experience, do you think that planes made for FSX will be compatible with Microsoft Flight or at least be able to be easily adjusted to it?

Thanks,

Yeah, releasing the SDK beforehand would be helpful to developers. I'm hoping that developers can and will quickly make their products compatible with Flight, because the program looks amazing, and it would be a shame not to be able to use CS planes in it.

If they make Flight incompatible with FSX titles they will give X-Plane (10) a big boost since you have to buy new stuff either way then.
The opposite happens if the already bought FSX stuff fills the niche until native Flight addons arrive.

In a way i hope that they dont, but allow an easy process for aircraft to be converted for flight as there is lots of payware i would rather not see in flight for a while. I wont list the payware developers i dont want see making aircraft for flight as their current quality of products is that low im sure you can guess some of them.

I have no issues paying for aircraft for flight even if they are the same aircraft i currently have and from the same developers

Some developers are worth supporting even if it means i own the same aircraft twice

Hm. Good point, that is true. Though I suppose it will really depend on Flight's capabilities. If it's nearly identical to FSX (which I don't think it will be), then they might as well make the planes compatible. However, if Flight offers a new features and capabilities, I would want to see new aircraft which take advantage of these.

I didnt know that episode 4 was up, its still looking great

If flight is still a legacy engine like fsx and fs9 was when they was released then i might just stick with fsx, but im hoping that what has been said about it being rebuilt from the ground up is true.

Also if you buy PC Pilot, there has been extra's on flight which in part has covered the poor performance of fsx and how they are trying not to make that mistake again, and in the latest one they had a great interview over X-Plane 10 with a demo video of two of the big features in xp 10

Im 100% sure that both platforms will be fully capable showing the best quality payware to the extreme ( this is something we struggle to do with fsx at times ).

Lets hope we can get on an open/closed beta or an msdn beta of flight when the time is right

It was hard to tell from the short view inside the cockpit, but it looks like the interior aircraft graphics are much improved.
