Realistic Flight Sim

Looking for a truly high-quality flight simulator that also happens to be free? Well, search no longer because you've just discovered FlightGear!

With FlightGear you get an open source flight simulator that is in many ways right up there with its expensive commerical counterparts, such as Microsoft's Flight Simulator.

FlightGear is definitely no slouch when it comes to recreating the flying experience and you might be surprised by its attention to detail and commitment to realism. It's also one of the few simulators out there that will run on almost every major OS platform (Windows, Linux, Mac, UNIX), and it doesn't even demand bleeding edge hardware to run well either.

All in all, FlightGear is a feature-packed, top-tier simulator that just might bring out the ace pilot in you. Be sure to download it take your favorite bird up for a few test flights.

Official Features List:

  • Over 20,000 real world airports included in the full scenery set.
  • Accurate runway markings and placement, correct runway and approach lighting.
  • Taxiways available for many larger airports
  • Sloping runways (runways change elevation like they usually do in real life.)
  • Accurate terrain worldwide, based on the most recently released SRTM terrain data.)
  • Scenery includes all vmap0 lakes, rivers, roads, railroads, cities, towns, land cover, etc.
  • Nice scenery night lighting with ground lighting concentrated in urban areas (based on real maps) and headlights visible on major highways. This allows for realistic night VFR flying with the ability to spot towns and cities and follow roads.

FLIGHTGEAR REVIEW, March 17, 2008
Reviewer: Jerame Gates from Bakersfield, CA USA
5 Stars

This is indeed a wonderful game that has the extreme quality that a expensive flight simulator would have. Trust me ,I have played it for hours and hours a day, and I never get tired of it! The best part is that it runs on any major OS platform and you would not need the newest graphic hardware. In my experience, this game is even better than Microsoft's Flight Simulator! Its kid friendly and great for any age. It all sounds so good but there is some bad news,you might need to download extra scenery and aircrafts for extreme play, but its still all good!
