Most players will recognize landmarks as they navigate their way over cities, across countries, and between continents, viewing the world from both inside and outside cockpit windows as they travel in real time.įor players of specific passion and disposition, this is a nearly perfect game. The one-to-one world-scale map is based on satellite imagery and includes airports large and small in communities across the globe, from mountain ski resorts to tiny rural airstrips. Players can take on various challenges, such as long haul flights or notoriously difficult landings, but will likely spend the bulk of their time creating and executing their own flight plans. That forces players to learn about and understand concepts such as throttle, flaps, trim, attitude, vertical speed, elevators, rudder, and heading (various optional assists can be enabled to provide guidance and simplify aircraft operation). It provides players with authentic virtual replicas of each aircraft's cockpit, with virtually every switch, dial, lever, and control stick made functional and interactive. MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR reboots one of the world's longest running game series, offering a hyper-authentic simulation of what it's like to fly everything from small, single-seat propeller planes to jet airliners.
