Surely that does not sound like they want to make a real simulator, but neither a limited action game like Crimson skies. Immersive flight experiences, entire continents sounds more like fly a highly simplified beautiful aircraft over beautiful scenery, perhaps missions as in FSX.

Still doesn't sound like what I would want, sigh. Anyway, even with FSX as it stands now, or any version of FS, you can set things simple and just fly (turn off automix and rudder, no compass drift, simple weather etc.) and have more complex simulations so why limit the choice?
