The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Flight Simulator for MS-DOS, version 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

If you set up Flight Simulator 5.0 for use under Microsoft Windows, the standard
MS-DOS icon is displayed and not the icon the Microsoft Flight Simulator Pilot's
Handbook pictured on page 194.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Pages 193-194 of the manual provide a brief explanation of how to run Flight
Simulator 5.0 under Microsoft Windows, and page 193 shows a picture of a Flight
Simulator icon. However the icon shown does not ship with Flight Simulator 5.0
and is not available on the system.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Flight Simulator for MS-DOS,
version 5.0.
