This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.
Yeah but are there fiery explosions when you crash into cityscapes?

Of course it does. Why would they exclude buildings where emergency services are coordinated?

this is the only way I played flight simulator as as kid back in the day.

what happens if we put a vertical stabilizer the size of the fuselage on this plane and put some bigass engines on it? \m/\m/

i sure hope that those animals they show in the trailer will use a herd dynamics particle simulation to scatter realistically when you fly over them. otherwise my immersion will be seriously ruined.

dcs world is a combat flight simulator. if you want to fly an attack jet in the caucasus or the persian gulf that's what you use. but that's all it can do.

microsoft flight sim is a civilian series that models things like navigation beacons and air traffic control across a huge terrain set so you can fly like you might in real life. not at all the same purpose as DCS.

i have dcs and x-plane, both with a ton of paid third-party planes, but i'll get this one too if it's anything like what it looks to be

That's for people into military planes, not civil aviation. Aerofly FS2 and X-Plane are the competition to the new Flight Simualtor.
