URITE FLIGHT SIM?<br />

“X Plane, its a real high accuracy simulator used<br />

by many professional organisations for training<br />

and early prototyping of new planes (including<br />

both the A380 & the 787) including by NASA for<br />

designing aircraft for Mars.”<br />

- Jessica Larkman<br />

“X-Plane on PC. Great graphics.”<br />

- Roy Whitworth<br />

“Warhawk and Spacehawk were<br />

good, War Thunder is another<br />

good one def and who can look<br />

passed MS Flight Simulator but<br />

I gotta say, hate aside, No Man<br />

Sky had some great flight moments<br />

and Lylat Wars (Starfox<br />

64) / Starfox Zero were brilliant<br />

experiences. Afterburner Climax<br />

had its moments too.<br />

“Flight Simulator X just because i can take off from an airport in my<br />

tiny home town in a 747 just to overshoot the runway because its<br />

designed for light aircraft.”<br />

- Zac Page<br />

Good times.”<br />

- Glen Nilsson<br />

“War thunder was a great flight<br />

sim. I had a great time flying<br />

through the air dogfighting. Pulling<br />

maneuvers. Has been a<br />

while since i have played it but i<br />

did sink a lot of time into it.”<br />

- Drew Camilleri<br />

“Chuck yeagers air combat<br />

(1991) I think that’s where my<br />

appreciation for aviation came<br />

from.”<br />

- Joel Phillips<br />

“ I LOVE ALL SIMS especially<br />

the good ol Microsoft flight sim<br />

x. something about it was just<br />

great didn’t have as good graphics<br />

as today’s flight sims but<br />

back in its day they were pretty<br />

good. The missions the selection<br />

of aircraft and the whole feel<br />

of the game and the experience<br />

was just so good. (format PC).”<br />
