> Always when I start a new project I wonder what programming language I should use. Most of the time the requirements are the same.

Oh lovely, you can switch to the "Gates Learjet" and go for a Manhattan Tour and buzz (and crash) into those tall towers like its 1989

How cool is that! I remember FS4 (and FS5) well, having logged hundreds of hours in FS4 as a kid, and many more unlogged hours. In fact, in the early 90's, I was one of the first people in a Virtual Airline. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_airline_(hobby) Not just the first VA, but one of the first few people in the VA.

The whole original Maniac Mansion game can be played on a
computer resembling a Commodore 64 inside the Day of the Tentacle
game; this practice has since been repeated by other game
developers, but at the time of Day of the Tentacle's release, it
was unprecedented.
