MS Flight is now available on STEAM ... for free

[Chivas]

If the new IL-2 series gets sorted, and the SDK is released, this could be an opportunity to draw the FSX crowd of modders and thus flyers into the IL-2 series. This was part of Olegs original plan, but unfortunately they are still trying to get the new IL-2 game engine working.

I can see IL-2 servers in the future with just civilian aircraft flying over detailed terrain, especially when they can enable DX11. I would have downloaded MS Flight, just to fly around Hawaii, but I didn't find the MS Flight terrain believable enough. I was expecting more since MS Flight had dumbed down everything else they would have developed spectacular terrain, but it didn't happen. That said it could be improved in the future.
