Flightgear

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if anyone else here has mentioned it, but some of you might be interested in Flightgear, a free open-source flight simulator. It certainly looks the part, using high-quality models, clickable 3D cockpits, SRTM terrain data and imagery. There's even a working carrier to use, including the elevators :rolleyes:

Same here, played with 0.9.1...still lots of work I think. I'd be curious as to what people think of 1.0.

- tried it last night, was actually very entertaining

 

of course then I loaded MSFS 2k4 and had a go, for comparison

 

one thing about MSFS though is the add-ons like SFP1...for example, Okinawa on even MSFS 2k4 looks like a deserted tropical island with one road running up it...there are very well done free downloads that make the airport realistic (have been there a few times, eh)
