Right, I installed Falcon 4.0 and the modern updated version, I forget what it was called. I'd forgotten what a mammoth task it was to even get trained.

What else is there that's downloadable (possibly via Steam) that's fun, and a smidge less nerdy than Falcon? I don't mind a bit of sim, but sometimes I just want to fly and shoot stuff. But still pretend I am in a real jet.

DCS World is what you want. It's a free download either from the website or Steam.

It comes with an SU-25 frogfoot and a TF-51 mustang (training version, no guns).

You can then buy extra aircraft; the Flaming Cliffs 3 add on is less of a study sim than Falcon 4 BMS, the A-10C add on is even more so.

The really cool thing is this is a current platform with loads more add ins under development. BAe Hawk, Typhoon, FW-190 etc shoudl all be out later this year and there are now a few helicopter modules too.

Well, GEFS Online is a bit crap.
