x-plane sim will be the reason we upgrade our PC and also purchase Oculus rift VR headset

this is going to be revolutionary for gaming community. 30 yrs have been waiting for this time.

Jan, can you tighten that up a bit?

sure, here is a post from Ben Supnik, X-Plane lead designer:

http://developer.x-plane.com/2015/05/oculus-rift-apparently-windows-first/

This means that the Oculus rift does not support OpenGL (the graphics sdk that X-Plane uses) and they have no idea when it will.

Cheers, Jan
