My first was a cartridge based version on the Atari 130XE.
I’ve been buying the PC versions since (at least) MFS 2000 and it’s been a rip every time.
Unfortunately, to run the current sim with any degree of realistic scenery, I’m spending massive money on a system that won’t be out-of-spec after the next couple of updates. 
Nice.
Thanks.
