Conclusion by Avsim
"After reading this review, it should come as no surprise when I say that I had a blast inspecting this product. Each of the missions offered something that I liked, even those that took me outside of my comfort zone. I believe that this package is a good investment, not only because of the endless hours of entertainment it offers, but also because each mission invites you back for more, even after successful completion. Having replayed each mission several times, I continue to find new things that I missed before. There’s even a few trophies out there that continue to elude me....In closing, my input on this package is simple. If you enjoy the new mission feature in FSX and would like to add more adventure, purpose, and excitement to your simming routine, than you need to set course for Aerosoft’s website. Tune to FSX Mission Pack – Flight Tales 1, and you will be on course for hours upon hours of challenging entertainment.

"So, what else can I say about this great package, The missions are challenging, but there really is something for everyone, from the barnstormer, to the rescue pilot through the heavy iron pilot like me. Every mission comes with detailed charts, briefing and even designer notes for you to browse afterwards. All in all, a superb package only ever so slightly let down by a few thick accents, but for little more than €20’s it really represents great value. After all, how much fun can you really have at that price. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a date with a DC-3 in Peru, and it’s raining."
