If you like Flaming Cliffs then check out the Strike Fighters 2 series from ThirdWire. It is made by a team of 3 guys led by someone who is really passionate about his work. The game itself is based on 2nd, 3rd, and early 4th generation combat jets (F-100s, A-4s, F-4s, F-105s, etc) in a variety of real and fictional settings. It isn't as in depth as FC2 but if you enjoy flying more than learning systems then it is great. F-100D Super Sabre vs. MiG-21 makes for some very interesting and difficult combat! It also has an active modding community and features dynamic campaigns. The graphics are not stellar but the mods improve that.

Has anyone tried the F/A-18E by VRS? I'm wondering if it is worth its price tag.

Great FSX Addons:

I played for a while with the FS09 PMDG 737 and just switched to the FSX PMDG 737 NGX - Amazing plane. It uses quite a bit of my new hardware but its worth every penny. Nearly everything is usable, clickable or adjustable and the FMC is a real step forward compared to the FS9 FMC :) (It was nearly impossible to fly a regular descent without using the air brakes)

I also bought REX-2 and am quite happy with it. Clouds and skies are amazing. I took a photo with my mobile in which you couldn't see the edges of the screen and sent it to a friend, after which he asked if I have been in the cockpit of an airplane. :) :)
