I had become aware of this a couple of days after the September 11th
attack.  I think I had read about it on one of the news reporting
web pages.  The story said that MicroSoft had suddenly come to 
realize that having these features in their flight simulator game was
now a very sensitive matter.  The story went on to say that MicroSoft 
had announced that they now have a special link that you can use to 
download a patch that will eliminate the feature of being able to fly 
into the WTC and the Pentagon to crash and burn.  These landmarks have 
been completely removed in the patched version.
