1) Moving vehicles-This is something that I feel would really bring the world alive. Even if it could only be done at night, it would make a huge difference, as night is when you can usually observe vehicles moving along the roads and highways. Even from 30,000ft up. Adding moving traffic would be the equivalent of the addition to AI in FS2002. Awesome.

2) City lights at night reflection under clouds-This is another thing that I hope we will one day see. When there is an overcast or alot of clouds over a larger town/city at night, the clouds underside of clouds glow from the light being reflected. Having flown into cities like Chicago and here in New York, the effect is spectacular. Low laying clouds literally glow orange or even white if they are over a stadium.

3) Sun through scattered cloud rays-This is another one of those effects we always see in the real world of flying. Would really be a nice touch to the sim to be able to see the sun's rays hitting the ground. Microflight did quite a number on this one.

4) Smoother turning AI traffic. Since to a certain degree the community has been able to provide a solution for the taxi speeds, the next thing is to improve the way AI planes make turns on the ground. At this point the manuever looks a bit erratic/jerky until the aircraft begins to move in a straight line. Fully support the AI's range of sounds that can be heard from inside a nearby cockpit/cabin. In particular one of the most awesome aspects of flying is holding short of a runway with an aircraft in position to take-off and hearing the spool up and rumble of its engines.

5) Fully support the AI's range of sounds that can be heard from inside a nearby cockpit/cabin. In particular one of the most awesome aspects of flying is holding short of a runway with an aircraft in position to take-off and hearing the spool up and rumble of its engines. All it needs is to be incorporated and the developers will produce the sound sets. They've hit the thrust reverse sounds pretty well.

6) More than one visibility layer.......or at least visibility that transitions. It would be great to be able to set a couple of different visiblity layers or at least if visibility transitioned. For example, climbing out of 3000ft with visibility set at 5 miles from ground level to 3000 and coming out to unlimited visibility is a bit too sudden.

7) Incorporate a windows version of one of your classics into FS10, I have FS4 or FS5 in mind. It would be a great little treat for us and an appreciation tool as to how well FS has improved over the years for those who came on board a bit late.


6) And here is the main one.....
a) Please coninue to support the 3rd party developers with the best SDK's/Tools that you can provide. MS gives us a great product that the community's craftmen take to another level with their great add-ons. Please continue to support this as best you can. It will contribute to MSFS's continued success.
