Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight: Official Strategies & Secrets
This book contains tens of pages about aircraft information which is easily obtainable from the internet. It does have some useful FS usage information, but even that can be obtained from the online manual.It is not a total waste though.

Although there are some interesting excercises in this book, it didn't have the extensive, detailed "nuts & bolts" information I was looking for. Each subject is a basic overview followed by "see the learning center for more information".I was hoping for detailed information on all controls and instruments, the information that's NOT found in the FS2004 learning center.In short, don't waste your money.

I purchased this book after I read the other reviews. Some of them were not as good as others. I have long been a fan of Flight Simulator and I have purchased all the hints book to go along with each one. I found this book to be a great resource and I have used it daily.

Great little book!Can't imagine starting out playing FS2004 without this handy book. Has many, many tips to help the novice to begin using and understanding the flight simulator. Recommend it highly.

Great book. Goes real well with flightsim 2004. Very informative and highly detailed. The only downside is they don't have specs for add-on aircraft. Duh! I learned so much about the default aircraft and their settings for flying just from reading this book. Who knew? Great job!!

I recently purchased the 2004 Flight Sim as my introductory software into the flight sim world. As one who has always loved flight, and with a few hours logged in a Cessna 172, I can vouch for this software's authenticity. I was somewhat concerned about the ability of my computer to handle the needed size and speed requirements, but its doing great. After purchasing a yoke, my five yr old son is also very excited about learning more about the aviation world. Its a great start.
