This version should probably be labelled SubLogic, which was founded by
Bruce Artwick. In the late 80's, SubLogic fell on hard times, Bruce left
them and started BAO (Bruce Artwick Organization.) In late 1995 (I
believe) MS bought the assets of BAO and began developing MSFS themselves.
BTW, MS Flight Sim (Developed at SubLogic) was the first game for the IBM
PC.

Flightsim I, (c) 1984
This is one of the original flight simulators that came out for several 8 &
16-bit machines that IIRC the copyright was bought up by none other than
Micro$hark.
