Is flight simulator real in an aeroplane?

is flight simulator real in an aeroplane like if the pilots are dead in the plane there are no pilot to flight if you play flight simulator and you are good in the game can you really fly an aeroplane?Is flight simulator real in an aeroplane?
The answer to this question is complicated.



With Flight Simulator experience and appropriate add-ons, you could learn enough to operate an airliner with help from the ground or an instructor. People have actually done this (using full-motion simulators, not actual aircraft), so it is not in dispute. In fact, you don't even need Flight Simulator experience; all you need is the ability to push buttons, turn knobs, and follow instructions precisely, all of which almost anyone of normal intelligence can do today.



The reason for this is that modern airliners are very heavily automated. It's possible to fly them to their destinations and land without touching the flight controls (yoke, rudder, etc.). The only part of flying that requires practice is flying manually with the flight controls, so by eliminating that necessity with automation, it becomes possible for a non-pilot to fly the plane as long as he receives instructions from a pilot (by radio or in the cockpit).



Ironically, this is possible only for large airliners, because only they have enough automation to make flight and landing possible without using the flight controls. A non-pilot would have a very tough time landing a small airplane, because small airplanes have very little automation, and it isn't possible to fly and land them entirely without touching the controls. And once you touch the controls, you need a lot of practice to fly the plane safely.



So, yes, it's possible to fly a big airliner without actual flying experience provided that (1) the airplane is heavily automated, such as a large commercial airliner; (2) there is a source of help available (a qualified pilot on the radio or preferably in the cockpit); and (3) there is nothing actually wrong with the airplane itself, and no unusual circumstances exist (severe winds at the airport, lack of autoland-certified instrument approaches to the airport, etc.). Having experience in Flight Simulator would help, but it wouldn't be necessary, as the actual procedure would simply consist of carrying out the instructions one is given by a pilot.



The answer is no for smaller aircraft, because of their lack of automation, as mentioned above. In a small Cessna you'd have to fly by hand, which requires practice, and it wouldn't be possible for someone to help you fly by hand just by radio鈥攃hances are that you'd still crash or make a very rough landing. Flight Simulator experience would help you understand how to fly, but the lack of actual practice would still tend to produce an unhappy result.



For all types of aircraft, the answer would be no if you had no help. That is, in an airliner, there are systems that are not modeled in the simulator, and you'd have to know about those systems, which you wouldn't unless you had an instructor. And flying a small plane would be difficult if you had no instructor to correct your mistakes; flight simulation would help a bit, but you'd still get into trouble fairly easily, with unfortunate consequences.
No you could not land the craft. flight simulator is fun but it leaves a lot of thing out for real flying. I am a AIR FRAME AND POWER PLANT MECH and use flight simulator and i don't think i could land one a small plane maybe but not a 777 or air bus or 737 cause their are so many thing going on in flight like winds speed direction weather. that is why it says YOU CAN NOT USE THIS FOR PILOT (certified)Is flight simulator real in an aeroplane?
No, Milk Beech, you can't land the plane if you're good at Flight Sim X or Ace Combat 6
UIIIs flight simulator real in an aeroplane?
not sure I understood that, but no a simulator is not the exact same as flying a real plane.
no its not even close. you'd probably just kill the passengers with your "flying"

What hardware is needed to run Flight Simulator X Best?

My computer is a pentium D 3.2GHz, 1GB Ram, 320GB HDD, GeForce 7600GS (256Mb) and a year old and it cannot run flight simulator X unless all graphics options are turned off. Is this right because it's well above the system requirements for the game. What can i do to improve my system? What are these new physics accelerators? Would they help?What hardware is needed to run Flight Simulator X Best?
no physx cards are a joke. Just answered a question about them the other day.



FSX is a high demanding game. It may require DX10 support, not too sure I don't care for the series.



7600GS isn't that great of a card played on the newer games. Its not a bad card, but will work best with DX9 games.



Physx cards have shown benchmarks to actually decrease fps during games.What hardware is needed to run Flight Simulator X Best?
Flight Sim X is fully sick mate..

it's a really cool game I ever played..



well, my laptop spec is:

Windows XP SP2

Intel Pentium 4; CPU 3.00 GHz 2.99 GHz; 1.12GB of RAM



and it runs pretty well in my laptop..



don't forget to buy a joystick or even yoke to play the game..

Which is the BEST SIMULATOR GAME for PC? Microsoft Flight Simulator X: how about this ?

Google earth flight simulator. look it up.Which is the BEST SIMULATOR GAME for PC? Microsoft Flight Simulator X: how about this ?
Flight Simulator X is a absolutely fantastic flight simulator for the pc. With flying experience myself in real life, the realism is unbelievable. I havent tried XPLANE yet but thats good aswell - it takes 60 GIGS of hard drive space!! Thats whats put me off lol.

One slight snag with Flight Simulator X - its slow unless you update it to fsx sp1.

    A lot depends on your processor, RAM, and graphics card. If they are not powerful enough, the quality of the simulation will suffer. You can also adjust the effects and graphics details down to improve frame rate.

    Flight Simulator 2004 install error?

    I have just bought the Flight Simulator 2004 game, and when I get to the third disc of the instalation, it says "Setup failed to extract files from D:\MSGAME7.CAB. This is most likely caused by low memory (low disc space by swapping file) or a corrupted cabinet file. Please restart your machine and run setup again.". What can I do?Flight Simulator 2004 install error?
    you can restart your machine again and run the installation again







    jk lol, ermm if i remember correctly swapping file is when you dont have enough ram and the remainging disc space on the drive gets turned into more ram, dont be fooled thinking this is good because its not, its much slower than the ram sticks and lags th game.

    But since ur 'installing' the game (installing also takes ram) itl most likely be your RAM.

    ok hers what to do...

    First tell me how much ram you got then if youv got 32mb (which is the minimum) id recomend you get more ram first. consult your mobo manuel first! hope this helps

    If u want to improve performance without cost.

    Just lower display options in FSX

    Defragment ur harddisk

    Installed older games.



    If u want to upgrade ur pc(it will cost)

    Graphic card-Buy Geforce 9800 GT(very cheap and powerful) or GTX

    CPU-Buy intel core 2 duo(performance) or core 2 quad(more better performance)

    Harddisk-500 GB or 1 Tera samsung HDD is enough

    Ram-Buy 2 GB DDR2 corsair or kingston is enough.

    Microsoft Flight Simulator Help Please?

    (This is the message I sent to Microsoft. Can anyone answer it quickly for me!? Thanks)



    Dear Sir/Madam

    I recently purchased one of your games, Microsoft Flight Simulator X Gold Edition. I spent quite a lot of money on it, to find out that my desktop couldn’t cope very well with the high levels of graphics that the game offered. I placed the graphics options on minimal (the very lowest), and the game now runs slightly better, but I still cannot experience the full gameplay that the game offers. I have now purchased a new laptop, and downloaded the Microsoft Flight Simulator X Demo Version from the internet. The game works very well, even with the graphics on “Ultra High”! But I have already registered the game on my desktop. Does this mean that I will not be able to register it on my laptop? I see it as a bit of a waste of money if I am not allowed to use the game on my desktop. If I uninstall it from the desktop, will I then be able to install and register it on the laptop? Thank you for your help.Microsoft Flight Simulator Help Please?
    pretty sure it will just work even if you don't uninstall from the old computer. try it out, if it doesn't work then no harm done.

  • How do you get Flight Simulator X to not hang up?

    I've installed Flight Simulator X on my computer. It worked great for a while, then it froze up. The game would not load again after rebooting %26amp; reinstalling. It would begin to load, then it would not respond.

    Is there a fix out there for this?How do you get Flight Simulator X to not hang up?
    You need to make sure you have enough space on the computer to handle it. It requires a minimum available space and if you have a lot of other stuff on your hard drive, it might not load.



    There also sounds like your RAM might be a bit low on memory.



    One thing that might help is to defrag your system and try reloading and rebooting and reinstall the game.How do you get Flight Simulator X to not hang up?
    DEEPTHINK...'s answer is correct but you also need to check on your video card and make sure that it can handle this simulator as it is graphically intense.

    It's possible that the video card is overclocking and possibly overheating. This can also lock up a game.

    I reccomend nothing less than a 256mb video card for Flight Sim X.

    What are some good aircraft to download into Flight Simulator X?

    I have Flight Simulator X and I have quite a few cool and unique, as well as concept aircraft, but I want to know what other people like, whats your favorite downloadable airplanes to fly in that game?What are some good aircraft to download into Flight Simulator X?
    It really depends up on the person. So it more really what you want.



    Some just use it as a tool, As a student pilots, It helps them , But don't count for REAL WORLD flight time. But it helps when they are away from

    the Airport/FBO. Flight training school.



    Others, Go all out and Download all the airlines from around the world.

    This makes the Major Airports look very busy and very real.



    Note: The Ai-Traffic use real airlines and real flight numbers at the time the ai program that was made, for that airline.



    Some people love a airline they love to fly with. so they down load that airline Airbus or Boeing .



    Some fly short routes others like my self the long hauls.



    Hope that would give you an Idea.

    Hell nah. I have a laptop and a game similar to that one except its the Microsoft one. I play that thing all the time on airplanes. Just be sure to wear some headphones or something to keep the noise down for the other passengers. That is the only reason they would be bothering you.



    Have a nice flight and be sure to play the simulator the right way.



    Haha I suck at that game and keep crashing it.



    Anyway, Bon Voyage =]Would people find it suspicious of me to bring a flight simulator onboard a plane?
    yeah....pre install it (i take it that you already play it anyway), put the volume down real low or use headphones and nothing should be anyones concern.

    Will the aluminum macbook pro run a flight simulator well?

    Hey guys I was wondering of the new aluminum macbook pro with completely decked out 15" 2.53 4gb 320gb at 7200 hard drive (minus the 2.8ghz processor) would be able to run flight simulator x any good. I've heard mixed things, and apple is well known for not being gaming machines, especially since we are talking laptops. Any help is appreciated.Will the aluminum macbook pro run a flight simulator well?
    The Macbook Pro comes standard with a 9400, with the option of a 9600GT mobile. Both should run current flight simulators, and the 9600 should run even demanding ones on high settings. Flight simulator X claims to only need a 32MB video card, so I venture that you could run it even on the lowly 9400 model with everything on highest settings at a steady 60FPS.



    Have fun.Will the aluminum macbook pro run a flight simulator well?

    The HP Pavilion dv7 (2008) Notebook has ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics (700 MB)

    You don't need a gaming computer for Flight Sim 2004. Any modern computer can run it easily. My laptop is a couple of years old Pentium M @ 1.73 GHz, integrated graphics, 1GB RAM and it easily surpassed the minimum and recommended requirements for FS 2004 by a large margin on http://www.systemrequirementslab.com In order to play the game you just need a cheap newer computer. Don't spend all that money on a gaming rig when a $500 dollar laptop will work just as well.

    Flight Simulator for a 14 year old?

    My son is seriously interested in becoming an airline pilot, he never stops asking questions and reading up on this profession therefore, I am looking to purchase (xmas gift) a "realistic" game/program for use on the laptop - any recommendation please?



    Also, in purchasing the "recommended" game will I need to buy any other programme or equipment in order the game will work as I have been looking at "Microsoft Flight Simulator" and I am a little confused as I am under the impression that I need this in order to play any of the flight games!. The operating system will either be Window 95 or XP



    Thanks in advance for your responsesFlight Simulator for a 14 year old?
    Flight simulator is cool, but IL2: Sturmovik is the single most realistic flight sim i have ever seen. When you crash your plane in Flight sim, it just stops. Crash in IL2 and bits fly everywhere and the pilot has the potential to die,or live depending on the severity of the crash. My grandfather flew a F4U1-C Corsair in WWII for the marines and he says that it is scary how close the game comes to real life. This is however a WWII flight sim, but if you can fly the ensign killer, you can fly just about anything! Also, Flight SImulator X has some pretty high system requirements, and prolly won't run on a laptop.

    What is the latest flight simulator available?

    I was going to buy a flight sim. I have heard about Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Does anybody know if this is the latest one available? And also, is it better just to get the gold edition, rather than the normal one and the expansion (I take it Gold = Normal game + Acceleration Expansion).

    And any tips on any decent joysticks anybody reccomends?What is the latest flight simulator available?
    I have Microsoft Flight Simulator X. There is not a big difference in the expansions, there are just more planes. If you're more interested in flying commercial or prop aircraft, just stick with the game itself. Buy Acceleration if you're more interested in fighter jets and helicopters.



    About whether Gold edition or Normal + Acceleration... buy whatever's cheapest. I don't know of any major differences between Gold version or Normal + Acceleration.

    Why does my computer restart after running flight simulator for a long time?

    I do long flights on Microsoft Flight Simulator X. I usually takeoff, go to bed and wake up 8 hours later and land. Lately, my computer seems to be incapable of running the game for this long. When I go to bed, I minimize flight sim and turn off the screen. I get up, turn on the screen and right when I maximize flight sim, it freezes up and restarts. It says a serious error occurred. It also restarts even when the screen is on and flight sim is running. Any ideas?Why does my computer restart after running flight simulator for a long time?
    It sounds like you're running out of memory. Have you checked your task manager when running the program or run it while you leave the program on over night? Maybe don't minimize the flight simulator at all. Turning the screen off has nothing to do with it.



    Run disk cleanup before you do a flight tonight. If that doesn't fix it give me a call and we can discuss other tools and procedures to keep your computer "tuned up".

    Depending on the temperature at your place and the cooling your pc uses you might be overheating CPU and the PSU.

    If that's the case, leaving it unattended and under load could be a fire hazard.

    Why are my landings on Flight Simulator 2004 always bad or bumpy?

    Why are my landings on Flight Simulator 2004 always bad or bumpy?



    I have the game set on the most realistic option, so if I do a bad landing, I actually crash, but all of my landings look as though I just drop onto the runway or nose dive then flare.



    Can anyone give me tips on how to improve my landings. I usually fly 757s, 767, 777 and A320sWhy are my landings on Flight Simulator 2004 always bad or bumpy?
    You are probably flying too high and too fast before landing. That's the classic mistake made by flight simmers. It's easier to make this mistake with airliners, and since simmers usually start their flying with airliners, they are more likely to make this mistake than real pilots.



    (Real-world pilots start out on tiny airplanes and work their way up to airliners, so by the time they are flying airliners, they've already learned all the basics with smaller aircraft.)



    The key to landing a large airliner safely and smoothly is a stabilized approach. Long before you reach the runway, you must ensure that your approach speed is correct, and that you are aligned precisely with the runway, and that you are descending along the correct path for landing. If any of these is incorrect, you'll have trouble landing safely and smoothly.



    Large aircraft are fast and slippery, so you must anticipate everything. You must set the aircraft up for a stabilized approach far in advance of reaching the airport. You cannot correct mistakes at the last minute. If the approach is not right, you must go around and try again. If you are blazing along at 290 knots a mile from the runway, there's no way you're going to slow that airplane down to a proper approach speed before you reach the threshold of the runway. If you're still 8000 feet above the field two miles from the runway, there's no way that you'll be able to descend to the runway in time to land correctly and safely.



    Runway alignment is a bit less critical, since you can turn the airplane at any time. But you'll find that turning airliners and lining them up with the runway at the last minute is really, really hard, and requires a lot of experience. It's best, then, to line yourself up way in advance, while you still have plenty of wiggle room. By the time you get close to the airport, you need to be following an arrow-straight path that's precisely aligned with the runway centerline. Systems like ILS are designed specifically to help with this.



    Descent rate is also important. Changing your descent rate at the last minute is very bad. If you are constantly pushing the yoke to and fro or constantly retrimming wildly with the approach lights looming in the windshield, you're on the fast track for a rendezvous with destiny, so to speak.



    Another key thing to remember: In an airplane, you can descend quickly, or you can slow down quickly 鈥?but not both. So if you're coming in too high, but at the correct speed, there's no way you can get down to the correct altitude without picking up speed. And if you are at the right altitude but coming in too fast, there's no way you can slow down and still maintain that descent rate. Tiny adjustments can work, but if you try to descend and slow down significantly at the same time, the laws of physics are going to get in your way.



    So set up your approach carefully and early. By the time you're on short final, or before, the airplane should be able to continue the approach smoothly down to the runway even without you touching the controls, and even with the autopilot off (provided there are no wind changes). If this is not the case, you've done something wrong.



    Practice makes perfect. Eventually you can shoot approaches easily.



    And yes, all of this applies in real airplanes, too. There are obviously differences between a sim and a real airplane, but all of the basic principles are the same. The reason airline pilots do approaches so well in real airplanes is that (1) they've done it thousands of times in airplanes of all sizes, and sometimes (2) they know how to use automation to help (but there's a learning curve for that, too, so beware).Why are my landings on Flight Simulator 2004 always bad or bumpy?
    You are probably doing too much adjustment at the last moments before touching down.



    Get lined up about 10 miles out, and go as slow as possible. Forget about trying to "flare" just before touching down, in a 2D flight sim, flaring at the end is ridiculously difficult and unnecessary... you need to hit the runway at some kind of angle (you can't hit it at zero degrees), and your descent angle is fine for landing.



    The angle you descended at should be the angle you hit the runway at. Again, forget about trying to flare it. If your approach angle was correct, you won't need to adjust anything much at all for touchdown. And if your approach angle was incorrect, you should go around.

    There are no driving simulations like the above mentioned, no one has thought to make a title like that. Racing simulations for the PC market is however very different. GTR虏, GTL, rFactor being the top 3 out today, and all 3 run basically the same engine, ISI's gMotor2. GTR虏 %26amp; GTL both were done by SimBin, and rFactor by ISI themselves, with the latter being the most mod friendly. NFS and GTA series being mere racing games, there is quite a difference between the 'racing games' and the 'simulations'.

Ithink there should have been two DVD boxes in the package with 3 or more discs. I only got 1 box with 2 discs inside both labelled flight simulator X deluxe edition disc 1 and 2. I also did not receive the product activation code.How many discs exactly are included in Microsoft's flight simulator X Gold Edition?
    Strange.

    From my knowledge, yes, there should be two boxes and a total of three discs. Two should be the main simulator, and on eshould be the acceleration pack. The product activation codes should be a yellow sticker that is located inside the box opposite the panel holding the CDs in each box.

    You could consult with the store manager about the problem, or refund and get another one somewhere else.

    Microsoft flight simulator; x-plane?

    Ive used microsoft flight simulator; and it simulates actual flight conditions and actual flight controls. So considering that microsoft flight simulator, and plane-x, both offer a lot of educational flight learning on real flight principles, why do otherwise knowledgeable aviation people insist on being jackasses and keep telling people to post their microsoft flight simulator questions in Games???? Microsoft flight simulator teaches about airplanes and flight!!! the people in games dont know sh-t about airplanes. They know zilch about flight!!! they just want to push buttons and zap figures on screens and get high scores in stupid stuff like mortal combat or fast and furious or some dumb sh-t! Why is it so friggin annoying for some of you airplane know-it-alls to see microsoft flight simulator questions? If you dont want to answer them. just dont answer them!!Microsoft flight simulator; x-plane?
    There exists a certain category of pilot who invests a great deal of his self-esteem in his pilot's license. Low-time private pilots are disproportionately represented in this category. The license is very important to the egos of pilots like this, and they become defensive and abusive when anything threatens the prestige that they believe a pilot's license represents. Most of them do not use simulators and do not know exactly what can be done with simulation.



    Experienced and well-adjusted pilots do not feel threatened by simulation, and may even find desktop simulation useful for certain purposes, such as "preflying" planned trips, practicing instrument flight and navigation, or practicing in the use of aircraft systems on complex aircraft.



    Neither Microsoft Flight Simulator nor X-Plane is a game. Both are simulators. That's why true gamers become bored very quickly with these two programs.



    It should also be kept in mind that the MSFS base product is considerably less functional than MSFS with an assortment of useful add-ons. Some add-on products for the simulator make such a dramatic difference in the simulation that it's like having a completely new simulator. Detractors of desktop simulators typically have no experience with advanced desktop simulator configurations, since they avoid the use of simulators in order to not dilute the importance of their lofty positions as real-world pilots.



    Oddly enough, I've found that airline pilots with 10,000 hours are a lot more likely to accept and be interested in desktop simulation than low-time private pilots who use a pilot's license mainly to prop up a fragile ego. I guess the airline pilots aren't afraid that their self-worth will disappear in a puff of smoke if they dare to touch a desktop simulator.
    Because asking how to fly Microsoft products isn't asking to fly a Cessna or any other type of airplane.



    Mistakes in Microsoft have no chance of causing you bodily harm or damage to the aircraft, or for that matter even getting you a letter from the friendly guys at the FAA; therefore, it ain't the same, period.Microsoft flight simulator; x-plane?
    Good point. In fact, one of the largest aviation schools in Canada out of Buttonville Municipal Airport just north of Toronto has a computer lab that incorporates Microsoft Flight Simulator X in their licensing program.
    Who cares. ask. I agree MS Flight Sim is a good tool.Microsoft flight simulator; x-plane?
    vey good point marc, i think there should be a place for more of fs questions and yeah i would ask a pilot before asking a guy at gamestop. you bring an excelent debate over where to go for info? and personaly if it was about higher frame rates and better graphics it should be in computers and games, but if its about flying charicteristics of a b747 on landing during bad weather then yeah ask the real pilots

    If you pay for it, you avoid all that.



    Google Earth is a free program that has a sort of built in Flight Simulator ... if by simulator you mean the ability to float in the sky.

  • Flight Simulator X add-on problem?

    I downloaded some files from a freeware site to add to my FSXght Simulator X game. I unzipped them with the computer's built-in "wizard", and I tried to put them into the correct files of the game, (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X). Then, I immediately get smacked with this message:



    "Cannot create or replace [file name]: access is denied.



    Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use."



    FSX was not running.



    I am on a limited account. (I personally think this is the problem.)



    Any suggestions?Flight Simulator X add-on problem?
    Nigel, Was some what on the Mark. "the Wizard" May not know where to send the file's.



    Downloading Aircraft for FSX from the net. About 20% are full models, Complete aircraft, Panels, Sound, Texture.



    The other 60% are TEXTURES only.



    So, People who are new, May send the file to Aircraft file. But did not send it to the said air craft texture file.



    Or They did every thing right. But when they found it.



    It shows the Aircraft as ? You will need to Take a Photo then send it to the textures. Name the photo "Thumbnail" And place it in side with the textures.



    Or it did come with a photo, Open the texture file and see if one is. If you see one. Jpeg you will need to change the word from JPEG to Thumbnail. Then your aircraft Photo will show up.



    FSXNWA@yahoogroups.com Has a Photo page step by step

    To load your Model and Texture files.Flight Simulator X add-on problem?
    After you unzip the files, make sure you read any included "read me" files...they usually give you pretty good instructions for installing. What type of files are you trying to add? Aircraft files have to go into yor FSX Sim objects/airplane folder, Scenery files have to go in your FSX Addon Scenery folder, etc. You can't just place files in the main FSX folder. Also, do you have enough free hard drive space availabe to add the new files?

    I just download an game called flight simulator x.

    and now the type of it says shareware.

    can i use the game 4ever? PLzzzz tell meee...plzzzz tks.I just downloaded flight simulator x?
    i'm pretty sure you can use it forever if you register it with the code that came with the game.I just downloaded flight simulator x?
    Flight Simulator X is not shareware or freeware - it's a paid-for software.



    It's unclear from your poorly written question just what you downloaded and how. (jeez - would it have killed you to actually think the question before posting it?!)



    You either downloaded a demo of the game, which you can use forever (but it has limited playability).



    Or you downloaded a pirated version of the game - which is both illegal and a possible cyber security risk.



    If this doesn't answer your question, please repost the question in a more coherent form and indicating the needed info.

    it is possible to plug an xbox game controller into the p.c. but you will have to upgrade your p.c. Video games are better than the simulators due to graphics and the game selections.

    I have flight simulator x game, and i had to install it. is it possible to take the installed files and copy it to another computer? will the game still work?Can I transfer installed games from one computer to another?
    No, the game installs certain values to your registry and possibly dll files to your Windows directory. Without those files and registry keys, you can't play the game - you will have to reinstall the game on the new computer.Can I transfer installed games from one computer to another?
    No. do to the fact of when the software is install from a cd the files and settings are set and adjusted to the computers components and the windows program that the computer is running. There are not only files in the games default folder but thought the windows program do to graphic settings, monitor settings, etc. The game more then likely will not start do improper install and program errors. Hope this helpsCan I transfer installed games from one computer to another?
    No. Any program that registers any part of it's self (writs files to the Registry) can not be moved or transferred from one computer to another.

    My cousin, aged 11 (I think) LOVES airplanes. He watches airplane TV shows, he makes airplane models, etc. He especially likes historical planes. I just thought it would be nice to find him a joystick and game for a reasonable price to give as a (very) late christmas gift, but I have no idea where to look. I have absolutely no idea what version of Macintosh they have, or anything like that, so don't ask me. The game needs to be mac-compatible too, but it doesn't need to be a super duper expensive game or anything. Just kinda nice.I need to find a mac-compatible joystick and flight simulator game, where do you suggest?

    What is the newest flight simulator pc game that isn't about the air force ?

    What u r looking for is Flight Simulator 2009. dont get Combat Flight Simulator though cause thats all about the air force. :P

    Anyone know the name of this combat flight simulator game?

    I only played the demo of this game

    the demo came with the first computer which i got between 1995-2001(i cant remember the exact date)

    I can remember that at the end of the demo there was a robotic snake which i had to defeat but you cant because it is a demo.

    One enemy plane had the colors blue and yellow.

    I can remember I had to go through this tunnel and there were these walls closing and opening.

    I can also remember that you had to go collect fuel, health and super weapons and these were spread out all over the place.

    The game was in first person view and you can see your two guns thingy at the sides

    the controls were arrow keys to move and spacebar to shoot

    So please if you know a game which looks like the one I described above could you please give me the name?



    ThanksAnyone know the name of this combat flight simulator game?

    I have a new Dell Inspiron E1505 with the Intel Core Duo (1.60GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 533MHz FSB). I upgraded to the middle video card which is a 128MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1300 Hyper Memory.

    Thanks.Is my laptop good enough for games?
    Not really. The graphic card is not very good. I have the same computer almost. You need a better laptop to play games like alienware that is made for gaming. Laptops are not really made for gaming. You can play older games but not the newer ones. Better off using a desktop for games. Or getting a desktop replacement laptop. I know they are expensive but like I said laptops are not made for games.Is my laptop good enough for games?
    call of duty 1 = yes, call of duty 2 = no. Its a nice procesor just too low of a clock frequency for most demanding games. The video card is OK, will run the older games like 2004/5 not bad.. a gig of ram would help if you dont have that already..Is my laptop good enough for games?
    Check the specs on the games, they'll have minimum system requirements. I doubt the video card will be able to handle those games even at the lowest graphic settings.
    NO

    Flight Simulator?????

    First, Don't go off on me saying im posting in the wrong section. Most people who fly aircraft also play MFS and in Games, No one will know what im talking about.



    I need the control list for FS2004, But like all controls ( not all ) but the ones that matter Example : Push Back etc.



    Thanks alotFlight Simulator?????
    You can look in the settings of FS2004 to get a complete list of the current control settings. There's a default set, which you can google for easily enough, but since you can change the settings to anything you want, it's important to actually verify them in the sim to see what you have configured. It's also the easiest way to change them.



    As I recall, it's something like Options | Settings | Control assignments. You have a complete list of all the possible control functions, along with the key sequences and/or joystick controls currently assigned to those functions.



    Sometimes it's worthwhile to deprogram all control functions except the ones you actually plan to use regularly, so that hitting a particular key accidentally doesn't cause the sim to do something that you don't expect. MSFS lets you turn off any of the controls by just deleting the key and/or joystick assignments.Flight Simulator?????
    "Flight Simulator is a computer game, not an aircraft, so put your question in the "GAMES" section where it belongs. Lets keep the "AIRCRAFT" section reserved for questions about real airplanes, not pretend ones from a computer game. Can't you tell the difference between an airplane and a computer game?Flight Simulator?????
    Dude! You might have better luck if you post this in the games category.
    If you would stop putting your games question in the aircraft section, people wouldn't have to "go off" on you. You aren't asking a question about an airplane, you're asking about a game.

    if you download a torrent download program i suggest utorrent (http://www.utorrent.com/) when this is installed visit www.torrentz.com and search for your desired program read the reviews to make sure its legit if so download and use your cd key. be careful though as you will need the correct version for your key unless you get a new one from the internet but this is illegal.I lost my Flight simulator X disks.

  • Does Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX) run well on the "HP p6716f-b"?

    Hi. im thinking of getting a HP p6716f-b for my Flight Simulator X game. i don't have much money to spend and this is affordable. im getting it refurbished at best buy for $399. Thank you! Bye!Does Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX) run well on the "HP p6716f-b"?
    It will probably be borderline. Not sure which Athlon you have, but the card is probably not that great. I downloaded the FSX demo to my Dell Inspiron 530 - it ran okay once I installed a Radeon HD 4550 card, but so far I haven't seen enough of a leap to justify ditching FS2-004 for the full FSX. If you've got the quad-core Athlon you'll have an advantage for gaming in general and likely for FSX specifically, and a card like the 4550 can be had for under $50.



    You will however need a 300 watt power supply for even that card, which is actually pretty conservative for a PSU. Gaming cards tend to need upwards of 400 watts, and your system seems to have only a 250 watt power supply.



    My suggestion - unless you've already gotten FSX or used it on a higher end system, I'd suggest just getting FS2004. When played on lower- end systems, an edition of FS will always look like a slower-running version of the previous ed. of FS. FS has a pretty robust support community with tons of downloads available for free.

    Question's about Microsoft Flight Simulator X and laptops...?

    Microsoft Flight Simulator X Question:

    Soon I am going to buy a new laptop and with it I am getting one of the Microsoft Flight Simulator X Games?

    I have looked on the PC World Website. There are a few. Which one should I get?

    I want to be able to play like a Qantas A380 or Emirates or Singapore Airlines or 747 Virgin Atlantic. WHich one of the games has them?

    Or...

    Does it give you a bunch of Airbuses that you can chose to fly and then you download say the 747 Virgin Atlantic from a website and then you can play it on the game software. Is it like that? If so what website do I go on?



    Laptop Question:

    As I have said above, I am getting a new laptop soon. Which one should I get. One with Windows 7? I don't need it for school but I am in YR8 and will probably need it for school work (powerpoints etc.) and obviously I need it to be able to run Microsoft Flight SImulator X. Also it has to be a LAPTOP not some really expensive gaming computer. As I am not a millionair (I wish).



    ...Thanks guys!Question's about Microsoft Flight Simulator X and laptops...?
    Flight sim x is the best with lots of downloadable content and i don't know weather its compatible with 7 but its with vista

    Good cheap Cessna flight simulator?

    Hey there pilots!



    I've sold my motorcycle and I'm getting a private pilot's license next semester (may have to wait till summer though). I've budgeted myself for 55 hours but when the time comes I'll have enough money to go higher if I need it. The place I will be going to get instructed says they require a minimum of 40 hours but to be prepared for 55-85.



    I want to be ready as much as I can when I get there so I was wondering if any of you could recommend a flight simulation game. I will be flying a Cessna (1978 Cessna 152) with a Cirrus cockpit so I guess it would have to be a 2003 game.



    Before you all say anything, I realize very well that a flight simulator is in no way an adequate substitute for the real thing. I know that in real life everything is different down to my crappy little logitech joystick. I don't in any way expect that after being good at a flight simulator that I know anything about flying an aircraft. I just want to prepare myself the best I can. Thanks!Good cheap Cessna flight simulator?
    Flight sims are great for training. I recommend this for the private and instrument training . The Microsoft flight Sim X. I realize that it is an expensive program to run since the computer requirements are huge. But the older ones do the same basic thing. They are great fr learning how to navigate and fly real time to get familiar with pilotage and dead reckoning skills. I will also give a link for learning about VOR's and how they work.

    http://roye.home.netcom.com/flighttraini鈥?/a>

    Anything that helps you maintain and expand your knowledge is worth doing.

    Good luck
    Well i recomend FSX cause its just like reall life they actaully time like reall life like going to Italy for example its actually going to take you 8 ours to fly and the best thing of all you can downlaod any aircraft you want and have fun ;).

    Good cheap Cessna flight simulator?
    Hey, I congratulate you for looking into it. I did the same thing, and it helped. Got me aware of how to read instruments, where they were, etc. You're right, it's no substitute for flying, but it's another tool in the arsenal.

    If I may, I'd like to recommend three other things....

    First, get your medical out of the way first. There's no worse thing, than spending a lot of money on training, and then not being able to get your medical. Mine was about $100...

    Second, check out http://www.Sportys.com/faatest - It's a great way to study toward your written. Try to devote 10 to 15 minutes a day. You can even take the practice exam to see how you are doing.

    Third, join AOPA. You'll get access to a bunch of stuff that you'd otherwise have to pay for, and you get many great resources online to boot.

    As for flight sims, get one with the panel of the plane you are going to be flying. I flew the 71 model 152, so MS Flight Sim 98 was fine for me.

    Oh, and it's a 'Certificate', and only a 'License' to learn....

    Good luck...
    My suggestion for your pre-lesson would be to get a basic configuration of your cockpit and learn all the instruments from there.



    For instance, Turn coordinator, Altimeter, Heading Indicator, etc. Find out what all those do and how they relate to the plane.



    I am also studying to become a pilot. I have just finished my second lesson in a 1980 Cessna 152. It's a small plane but alot of fun cause you can feel even the slightest wind.



    If you have any questions please email me. I love talking about aviation.Good cheap Cessna flight simulator?
    get microsoft flight simulator 2000, 2002 or 2004.



    flight sim X isn't a good choice coze not all pcs can give you a great performance. They all have at least one Cessna. ( 172, 182, 208 etc.)
    MS FSX. Go to the flight training section. Fly the 172 with realism settings to realistic.



    You are right that this is no replacement for the real thing, but the concepts that you will learn are the same (coordinating a turn, traffic patterns, etc.)



    There is no real substitute for the feedback from the plane (pre-stall shudder can only really be experienced in real life) but this is a good one. And, when you are done with your "lesson" you can have some fun.
    Congrats on the decision to get your pilot's license !!



    I've found the Microsoft lineup does well. You can get the unloaded version which is perfectly fine for ~$30-$40 (deluxe is $50-60?) There are plenty of websites on line where you can also "download" airplane make / models that are compatible - my guess is a Cirrus is out there somewhere. I've downloaded everything from WW2 airplanes to other civilian plane types - see website attached



    As you noted, the simulator is no substitute, BUT it makes a great supplement. I've found they are good for practicing standard procedures you will learn in training (practice startup checklist, stalls, steep turns, emergency operations, and of course the beloved "patternwork".



    Also, I enjoy the Microsoft speech where you can use the keyboard to communicate as you fly. Most of us were shy about using the radios when we started. However, the simulator gives a great sense of the lingo and when to say what



    The cool thing is that you can set it up to fly at the airport where you will be flying out of. So there may be landmarks in your neighborhood. It helps you get used to the local area environment.



    The only area i dont think Simulators work well with is winds / crosswinds. Weather works well, but to practice things like crosswind landings - in my opinion you need to buy too many gizmos (rudder pedals,etc.) to be able to adjust the sensitivities. Things like this in my opinion you'll only learn from real experience in the plane with your instructor. There is a feel to it and you'll understand it with time

    I want to know how to land any type of aeroplane---not really but in a computer program flight simulator if someone has already used itAnybody able to tell me how to land an aeroplane (in game"flight simulator")?
    Drop down to about 2000ft and reduce your speed, line up with the runway while you are still pretty far out. Lower your flaps, this will slow you down even more so you might have to play with your throttle a little. Get it to where you have a slow steady decent. If you find you will hit the ground before you get to the runway just add a little throttle, or cut back some and raise the nose of the plane a little if it looks like you will over shoot the runway. It will take practice, I've had times when I can land a plane the first time and other times where I wreck the plane. Practice, practice, practice.Anybody able to tell me how to land an aeroplane (in game"flight simulator")?
    It is not an easy process. You need an understanding of the basic controls of the airplane as well as the techniques involved in flying a stabalized approach to landing. Here is a site I found off hand.

    Why does my gps in flight simulator stop working with my autopilot after a couple of flights?

    Flght simulator x Boeing 737 I like to make flights and stop different places save the game file a new flight plan go somewhere else but after a while the gps stops working with the autopilot.Why does my gps in flight simulator stop working with my autopilot after a couple of flights?
    Try clearing and recreating the flight plan. Maybe the multiple flight plans are clogging up the GPS when you don't load a flight from scratch.



    For what it's worth, the real 737 uses a flight management computer, not a GPS. You can get add-ons for your simulator that work just the way the real 737 does, although it's a lot more complicated to fly. Real 737s often do contain GPS receivers, but they are used only by the flight management computers, not directly by the pilots.Why does my gps in flight simulator stop working with my autopilot after a couple of flights?
    Flight simulator? lol wtf is un of them? is that like fake flying or summat? lol xxx idk??

    Is it possible to play Microsoft Flight Simulator on a TV?

    I recently bought 'Microsoft Flight Simulator' and have used it on my PC. The problem is it takes up a lot of memory. Is it possible to play the game on my TV (Flat screen Toshiba) with a games console or

    some other device??Is it possible to play Microsoft Flight Simulator on a TV?
    Well, it might be possible to play Flight Simulator on your TV if your TV has the right sockets to hook a PC up to it - however, I fear this isn't really what you are hoping to achieve is it? As the game is still going to be running on your PC it wont make a jot of difference to the memory usage where you are displaying the images produced, be it your monitor or your TV (IF you can hook it up). And as Flight Simulator is only available for PC it means that you have no other choice I'm afraid. Apart from adding more memory to your PC, buying a better and bigger graphics card or even simply buying a new PC there is nothing else you can do.



    Sorry!Is it possible to play Microsoft Flight Simulator on a TV?
    I believe that M$ quit making the console version of Flight Simulator back in the early '90s.



    On the other hand, X-Plane 9 is not as memory intensive and seems to be a more fluid, and accurate fly model. The city/airport scenery can rival MS, but requires (freeware) add-ons. The non-populated area scenery seems (to me) to be superior to MSFS X.Is it possible to play Microsoft Flight Simulator on a TV?
    If you go to wal-mart online or the actual store you may be able to find one, but my best bet is to talk to a electronics person there

    Just uninstall FSX. When you install it on another computer, follow the instructions...being online will help

    Is it safe to buy flight simulator X used on ebay?
    It may not be safe. It's a 50/50 chance. You dont know how damaged the cd is. It could be in good shape. If it was in good shape wouldnt they just take it to ebgames or gamestop. Or if it is damaged they would try to scam someone on ebay. Its mostly your choice but i wouldnt do it.

    Hi Chris,



    Check Windows Vista Compatiblity Center to see if the game will work with Vista. My guess is that it will (or a later version of it will) since it is a Microsoft game. You can find the Windows Vista Compatibilty Center here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compati鈥?/a>

    Flight Simulator?

    Hi, I have just bought this game second hand without instructions there is a lot of help of web but what I can't seem to find is if you do the plan of where you want to fly to and take off how do you set autopilot on to fly the route or do you have to do it manually? And the set time to go faster time how do you know how fast this is going or is it a case of just checking map when you are near the airport? And on auto pilot how do you work out Altitude, heading, speed to set it at etc. ThanksFlight Simulator?
    Micro soft flight simulator 2004 has no written manual. it is all in the "game"

    Start the sim, click on learning center, click on step by step instructions. when ready, go to lessons, you will be tutored on how to fly the sim.
    Does this simulator have a name?

    There are several out there and they do not all work the same.Flight Simulator?
    as some have hinted, the Learning centre within Flight Simulator is a great resource to help you fly all sorts of planes, and taxi them on the ground and such. there is also lessons that you can fly, that start out with a Cessna 172SP and work up all the way to a Boeing 737-400. Some planes in FS 2004 do not have an auto pilot (most do though), to file a flight plan you have to do it through the flight planner (in game, while flying, click on File %26gt; Flight Planner), to use time accelleration (compression) hit "R" and then the "-" or "=" keys, Time Compressions comes in rates of 2x, 4x 8x, 16x, 32x, 64x and 128x. and you can choose to fly manually with a joystick (which is A LOT easier than a keyboard) or you can use the autopilot but you have to adjust the speed, heading, altitude of the autopilot yourself usually on the Boeing Jets, Autopilot controls are located at the top of the main panel, right hand side.
    I would suggest you go to the tutorial section. There you will be able to learn to fly the small aircraft all the way up to the big jets. Start off small and build you way up. It is much more enjoyable that way.Flight Simulator?
    Most of the answers you have are pretty good ones. The Learning Center is a great resource for learning the game and how to sim fly. You may want to buy a good joystick also. It makes flying a lot more enjoyable. It also makes it easier to fly. Controlling the a/c with the keyboard, while not impossible, is very hard to do and have fun (that's my opinion). There are several sources for downloading new aircraft and other files that will make sim flying fun. The main site I use is www.avsims.com There are a lot of virtual airlines and military flyer's out there. These are groups that fly as a group online and individually off line preforming flights and missions. Good luck and happy flying.
    Your flight plan should be set through the FMC. I cant really say more as i dont have more information on what kind of aircraft it is. If you want to make the time faster then go to options and time compression you will see 2x 4x, 8x and more..If you want to check your map go to flights and map...
