What are some good flight simulator programs for the PC?

Answer 1

Well, that depends on what kind of what kind of simulator you're looking for. If you want to fly civilian aircraft, you'll definitely want to check out MS Flight Simulator X (I'd go for the deluxe edition). Some other good programs are:

* Flight Unlimited series of PC simulators
* FlightGear, an accurate GPL flight simulator with full world scenery and many aircraft models
* X-Plane, a highly accurate multi-platform flight simulator and the only one to be certified by the FAA for training purposes
* Aerowinx Precision Simulator, a full Boeing 747-400 CBT (Computer Based Training), used by some airlines in the training of their pilots on the 747-400

If you want to fly military aircraft, these are some good programs:

* Aces High, combat flight simulator and massively multiplayer online game for the PC
* Falcon 4.0, an extremely detailed 'study sim' of the F-16 Fighting Falcon.
* IL-2 Sturmovik, one of the leading World War II flight simulators
* Lock On: Modern Air Combat, Jet Combat simulator.
* Combat Flight Simulator, Microsoft's series of WWII Aircombat
* B-17 Flying Fortress, B-17 Bomber simulator in WWII
* European Air War, a highly rated simulation in the E.T.O. in WWII
* Gunship, a simulator focusing on the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter

Hope that helps! :)
