Apple MAC computer recommended system requirements:
Minimum
- Intel based Apple Mac computer with Mac OS X 10.6 or 10.7
- 1 GB RAM
- 16 GB free hard disc space
- OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVDIA or
ATI with 256 MB (As fast as NVIDIA 9400 or ATI Radeon HD 2400 ).
- A free USB port to connect the USB Interface / Game Commander
- If you want to use your own transmitter, please see further below

Recommended
- 2 GB RAM
- OpenGL Version 2.1 compatible 3D-graphics card from NVDIA
or ATI with 512 MB. At least as fast as NVIDIA 9600 or ATI
Radeon HD 4850

Please note: 4D sceneries only run on the recommended system platform.
Supported 3D graphics cards:

Here we will give an overview of supported 3D graphic cards for AeroFly 5. Please note that the 3D graphic card is the most important part to achieve a smooth simulation. Therefore carefully review this text and check if your card matches the requirements.

Please note: All 3D graphic cards NOT listed here and older than these cards a likely not compatible and are not recommended for AeroFly 5. If in doubt, please contact us.

Compatible 3D graphic cards:
- NVIDIA GeForce 7000 series: 7600GT, 7800, 7900, 7950
- NVIDIA GeForce 8000 and 9000 series: 8600, 8800, 9600, 9800
- NVIDIA GeForce 200 series: GTS 240, GTS 250, 260, 275, 280, 285, 295, 460, 470
- NVIDIA GeForce M-series for Notebooks: 8800M, 9700M, 9800M, 160M, 250M, 3xxM
(ensure you install the special NVIDIA notebook driver version 195.62 or newer!)
- ATI Radeon HD 3000/4000/5000/6000 series: 3650, 3690, 3830, 3850, 3870, 4650, 4670, 4730, 4750, 4770, 48x0, 5770, 58x0

The performance difference of the above cards is tremendeous. To fully enjoy the 4D sceneries your computer should have a fast graphic card, which should be as least as powerful as the NVIDIA GeForce 9800 with 1GB memory or the ATI HD 4870 with 1GB memory. If you are satisfied with flying only in the photographic sceneries of the aerofly5 a slower graphic card may suffice.

Our recommendation: Currently the ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1 GB memory is a very good 3D graphic card. This card is capable to perfectly display the demanding 4D sceneries even in full HD resolution of 1920x1200 pixels.

This software comes stock in version 5.0. Free update to version 5.7 available at the official Aerofly website.

This software includes a scenery and an aircraft available for testing before activating the software.
