Summary: Top Choice on the MSN Gaming Zone - "a must!"
Review: This book is amazing! It's an ideal book for the beginner and the professional of Flight Sims. 350 pages long full of detail ranging from Navigation to a detailed list of commands. If you want to fly FS2K to its best level, this book explains how in "friendly" writing. I have also read other FS2K books - but this is far the BEST from my experience of Flight Sims. Even with this book, i am still learning new techniques in the Flight Sim world. I took this book into work the other day and all my fellow pilots were astonished! From what i know, Ben Chiu is the one and only famous flight Sim authors around and his experience with MSN shows for it. I have read many of his books, especially the FS98 Inside moves book. He has a technique that is unique, as he is a real pilot himself holding many ratings! I have heard many Zoners State that they would be lost without this specialist book! - This book deserves 5 stars from me. - MSN Gaming Zone System Operator, Flight Simulator 2000 Lead.

Summary: Not bad, but there are better choices.
Review: While this book gives an excelent overview of real world flight, there is no coverage of the helicopter, extra, or sailplane. Also, the book describes a lot of stuff that is not in Flight Simulator 2000. If you want to compare real-world flight with the Flight Simulator world, this is a good book. Otherwise, there are better choices.
