Any experience on using a PC basedflightsimulator to enhance the learning experience would be welcome. Thanks Hari The debate is over two of them currently: MicrosoftFlightSimulator This one is by far the most popular. You can buy version 10 (called X) for $50 to $80, depending of the area you live in. If you computer isn't exactly the best on the market, you could consider version 9 (2004) since FS X is very demanding on the machine. I don't know if you can buy it new anymore though. X-Plane A nice competitor is X-Plane, which I haven't tried myself so far but most people who did will try to convince you it is equal, or better than MS FS. This one has a commercial version which is FAA approved, but the standard edition is less expensive than MS FS as I understand. For more information or help, please join alt.games.microsft.flight-sim We are very friendly and mature. Some of us are even more friendly than me, and some are much more mature (see both definitions of the word here). And heck, we even have fun together! Hope this helps, Tom ![]() sir, i am working on flight dynamics in iit madras. in my project i need fly the aircraft from angle attack 0 to 90 deg. and get all the stability derivatives. so which soft ware i prefer x plane or MSFS ? |
