Combat Flight Sim 3 with the firepower upgrade. IL-2 with wxpansions, Lock On modern Air Combat. (love the A-10 in that one). And the most life like and most complicated is Facon Force 4. I am a piolet and tht one I busted out a F-16 Flight Manuel...lol  Lock On is a good one. But if you don't want to mess with complicated radar and weapon systems go with a good WW2 Sim.

The IL series they just came out with a new good package deak including 5 games or something...Falcon Force IS the most realistic, but unless your a hardcore flight sim fan I would strongly recommend not getting it...

IL-2 is insanely realistic. At least when you set it to be. If you get really good and get into a clan the game can become one of the most fun and realistic games out there.

What is this Falcon Force that you speak of?  If it's Falcon 4: Allied Forces, then yes...that is probably the most hardcore combat flight sim I've played in a good long time (only beaten out by F-15 Strike Eagle back in the day...of course, the difficulty on that could have been because I was 8 while trying to play it...)

 Other games that you might want to try out: Crimson Skies (more arcadey, but very fun!), Magic Carpet 1 or 2 (again, very arcadey, and not really a flight sim...but still very fun), if you can find them: European Air War or Jane's World War 2 Fighters, Longbow 2 (it won't look pretty without a Voodoo2 card...but it's still a blast to play!).

 For futuristic "flight" combat sims: Freespace 2, Wing Commander 4 (w/ WinXP patch), Independence War 2: Edge of Chaos, Descent 3

You know you are crazy about flight sims when you start to notice unrealistic and nonfunctional elements in Falcon 4: Allied Force. It's that realistic.

I don't have too much experience with more modern flight sims, but IL-2 (and expansions) as well as Lock On: Modern Air Combat are loads of fun.  I highly enjoy them.

IL-2 is a fun combat flight sim and there's a new one with the original game and all its expansions called IL-2 1946. It only costs $30.

Fun game. I stopped playing it after the Russian only expansion which split the community.

Well, this isn't a realistic game, and neither is it new, but I thought Comanche 4 decent. Although it's annoying that there is no save game feature.
