Flight Gear

[5872]

For anyone that doesn't want to pay the £25 for FSX Deluxe, you can get Flight Gear for free which is pretty good and comes with a fairly large selection of aircraft.

Yes, I have that along with the world scenery and all the aircraft off the main site. It's a bit like the BVE of aviation sims. Amazing considering it's free.

I agree, the graphics aren't bad either!.

Yes, as I understand, the graphics are derived from satellite images a bit like Google Earth. They are quite accurate.

Do you have the word scenery, Fred?

Word? if you mean world, sadly not. Only my normal patches, (EGLL,KPHX,OMAA,OMBD,KSFO).

Should stand me in good stead this program, as I have to pass a simulator test before I'm allowed to fly the RC aircraft with the CCF.
