The thing is, I can do the same thing on FS 98 - and
I'm NOT a trained pilot (though it is real high on my
life's "to do" list). I repeated the experiment with
the Pentagon, the Sears Tower, the USX building (in
Pittsburgh), the Bank of America building here in
Atlanta, and the Golden Gate Bridge. I was able to hit
all of them on one try.

If it's easy for me, a joystick junkie, to be able to
pull this off, I can't imagine it takes Gorak, King of
Airplane Pilots. Just a little easily-available pilot
training.
