    Want to have a free flight? Take FlightGear! 1.1 Yet Another Flight Simulator? Did you ever want to fly a plane yourself, but lacked the money or ability to do so? Are you a real pilot looking to improve your skills without having to take off? Do you want to try some dangerous manoeuvres without risking your life? Or do you just want to have fun with a more serious game without any violence? If any of these questions apply to you, PC flight simulators are just for you. You may already have some experience using Microsoft’s c Flight Simulator or any other of the commercially available PC flight simulators. As the price tag of those is usually within the $50 range, buying one of them should not be a serious problem given that running any serious PC flight simulator requires PC hardware within the $1500 range, despite dropping prices. With so many commercially available flight simulators, why would we spend thousands of hours of programming and design work to build a free flight simulator? Well, there are many reasons, but here are the major ones: • All of the commercial simulators have a serious drawback: they are made by a small group of developers defining their properties according to what is important to them and providing limited interfaces to end users. Anyone who has ever tried to contact a commercial developer would agree that getting your voice heard in that environment is a major challenge. In contrast, FlightGear is designed by the people and for the people with everything out in the open. • Commercial simulators are usually a compromise of features and usability. Most commercial developers want to be able to serve a broad segment of the population, including serious pilots, beginners, and even casual gamers. In reality the result is always a compromise due to deadlines and funding. As FlightGear is free and open, there is no need for such a compromise. More: it also has a multi-play mode function and synchronises data over the Internet with other users of FlightGear so that they can see each other not only in the flight sim but also via a web page which tracks all pilots in real time. http://mpmap01.flightgear.org/ Reason for ISO image format: In the interests of saving bandwidth, and also prevent some apparent data file corruption that may occur on some FAT drives due to the very large number of small files, I have made this torrent compilation from data that is already available in individual file format, as 4 single DVD image file’s for more convenience, and reliability. Some have noted an issue with GZ files stored on a windows file system hard drive, as having strange effects? Not least defragmentation being severely handicapped. The ISO image format solves these adverse effects that may otherwise occur. How to use: either burn them to disk for mounting through your DVD drive or by use of ISO mounting software such as Nero Image Drive. Point your Flight Gear scenery application path to the mounted DVD and run from there. The application file itself is quite small, the bulk of the size is taken up by the whole world scenery or terrain being a more appropriate term, well the world might have been created in 6 days by god, but it takes a very long time to build the whole world including buildings and Bridges etc, so dont expect to much as the scenery is constantly being improved, http://fgfsdb.stockill.org/ Screen shots: http://fgfsdb.stockill.org/modelbrowser.php
