I would have found these screenshots good four years ago, but not in 2010.

What are you comparing it to? The only Flight Sims that have been released in that time are Black Shark, and Rise of Flight. (correct me if I'm wrong) If you're considering First Person Shooters, then you don't understand the complexity of flight sims verses FPS.... or any other genre for that matter.
There's only so many CPU cycles to go around. Some not quite perfect looking trees that won't get too much of a notice in the heat of battle GLADLY take a back seat to my airplane's FMs and enemy AI.
I fly RoF, and while I'm very pleased with the terrain and cityscapes the buildings have a tendency to look like paper cut outs. The trees rotate as you fly around them.
IOW. No game will master every detail. For 2010, I think this looks great. Perfect? No. But it's called a WIP for a reason.
I'd like to be a fanboi extrordinaire, but I find I'm only a fanboi fair to middling.
