FlightGear was developed as an
alternative to Microsoft's Flight Simulator. Don't let the price
fool you. This is a fully functioning Flight Simulator that puts
Microsoft to shame. This software gives you the experience of
flight right from your own computer. You can learn to fly without
every leaving your home. FlightGear is a high quality,
professional grade Flight Simulator with the option to add scenery and
airports that encompass the entire globe! Over 20,000 airports can
be added with additional scenery sets. Optional disks cover the
entire US and Canada, Europe, and more! It took over a decade to develop this software and now it is lighting the world on fire. Used on television episodes, used by professional flight schools, this is the software to own if you are serious about flying! This software is actually being used part of real flight simulators being built by enthusiasts. It does not get more serious than this. Use it as a game, use it as a head start to train to be a pilot! It also supports your top gun aircraft controllers! So if you have a yoke, foot pedals, throttle controller, etc., it will fully support those types of controllers! We also offer a 3 DVD set of scenery of the entire world for Flight Gear in our ebay store!! Other sellers offer the US only, or Europe only.. Why waste your time with a partial scenery set. In our ebay store, we offer the entire complete world scenery set. |

Fully animated, with views from inside the cockpit and outside as well. Realistic terrain. More scenery is available! Screenshots (all these pictures were resize and shrunk for this listing, so there has been some quality loss and some of the sharp lines look a little blurry. The real time rendering in FlightGear is pretty amazing):
FlightGear aircraft can have fully 3d, fully animated, fully clickable/interactive cockpits.
This latest release has much improved multiplayer support. There is even a multiplayer map server (based on google map technology) that can show all the active pilots superimposed on top of a google map:

Includes 440 aircraft (compare us to the competition in this one):
FlightGear itself comes with only a select number of aircraft. Most additional aircraft are typically sold separately. We have included bonus aircraft on this disk that others typically charge more for. You get 440 total different aircrafts. From jumbo jet airliners, to little prop planes, to domestic and foreign fighter jets, you get them all. Below is just a partial list of the more obscure planes you get, remember, there is 440 total in all!!! Legal disclaimer: Please note, this is a "simulator". That means, that this program, simulates cockpits and exteriors of the following planes. That means that it is designed to resemble the below planes. This program is not endorsed, or affiliated with, or supported by, any of the actual companies below that manufactured the real planes. I do not, nor the developers, pretend to be affiliated with any of these manufacturers, and to my knowledge, none of the manufacturers have given this program their official seal of approval.
Check out the screen pics of some of these great planes:
We provide
more planes with the original program than anyone else!
Others are charging $20 for the
aircraft package to FlightGear! We are including it on this
package at no extra charge to you! |

Extensive and Accurate World Scenery Data BaseAccurate and Detailed Sky ModelFlightGear implements extremely accurate time of day modeling with correctly placed sun, moon, stars, and planets for the specified time and date. FlightGear can track the current computer clock time in order to correctly place the sun, moon, stars, etc. in their current and proper place relative to the earth. If it's dawn in Sydney right now, it's dawn in the sim right now when you locate yourself in virtual Sydney. The sun, moon, stars, and planets all follow their correct courses through the sky. This modeling also correctly takes into account seasonal effects so you have 24 hour days north of the arctic circle in the summer, etc. We also illuminate the correctly placed moon with the correctly placed sun to get the correct phase of the moon for the current time/date, just like in real life.
Flexible and Open Aircraft Modeling SystemFlightGear has the ability to model a wide variety of aircraft. Currently you can fly the 1903 Wright Flyer, strange flapping wing "ornithopters", a 747 and A320, various military jets, and several light singles. FlightGear has the ability to model those aircraft and just about everything in between.FlightGear has extremely smooth and fluid instrument animation that updates at the same rate as your out-the-window view updates (i.e. as fast as your computer can crank, and not artificially limited and chunky like in some sims.) FlightGear has the infrastructure to allow aircraft designers to build fully animated, fully operational, fully interactive 3d cockpits (which even update and display correctly from external chase plane views.) FlightGear realistically models real world instrument behavior. Instruments that lag in real life, lag correctly in FlightGear, gyro drift is modeled correctly, the magnetic compass is subject to aircraft body forces -- all those things that make real world flying a challenge. FlightGear also accurately models many instrument and system failures. If the vacuum system fails, the HSI gyros spin down slowly with a corresponding degradation in response as well as a slowly increasing bias/error.
Moderate Hardware RequirementsThe intention of FlightGear is to look nice, but not at the expense of other aspects of a realistic simulator. Our focus is not on competing in the "game" market and not on the ultra-flashy graphic tricks.The result is a simulator with moderate hardware requirements to run at smooth frame rates. You can be reasonably happy on a $500-1000 (USD) machine (possibly even less if you are careful) and don't necessarily need $3000 (USD) worth of new hardware like you do with the many of the newest games. That said, the more hardware you throw at FlightGear, the better it looks and runs, so don't feel like you have to chuck your expensive new hardware if you just purchased it. :-) If you have fancy controllers for aircraft, be it yokes, foot pedals, throttle controllers, it can support that. If you have a dual or triple monitor setup...yep, it can support that too! Absolutely awesome! System Recommendations: Windows 7, 8, 10, Vista, XP Now with new weather effects, thunderstorms, lightning, and rain. And you can see the ground and self shadowing effects.
Internal Properties EXPOSED!FlightGear allows users and aircraft designers access to a very large number of internal state variables via numerous internal and external access mechanisms. These state variables are organized into a convenient hierarchal "property" tree.Using the properties tree it is possible to monitor just about any internal state variable in FlightGear. It's possible to remotely control FlightGear from an external script. You can create model animations, sound effects, instrument animations and network protocols for about any situation imaginable just by editing a small number of human readable configuration files. This is a powerful system that makes FlightGear immensely flexible, configurable, and adaptable. Picture of the Concorde showing our new "theme-able" gui system as well as our new shadow system where an aircraft will cast shadows on itself and the ground. Networking optionsA number of networking options allow FlightGear to communicate with other instances of FlightGear, GPS receivers, external flight dynamics modules, external autopilot or control modules.A generic input/output option allows for a user defined output protocol to a file, serial port or network client. A multi player protocol is available for using FlightGear on a local network in a multi aircraft environment, for example to practice formation flight or for tower simulation purposes. The powerful network options make it possible to synchronize several instances of FlightGear allowing for a multi-display, or even a cave environment. If all instances are running at the same frame rate consistently, it is possible to get extremely good and tight synchronization between displays. We also offer a 3 DVD set of scenery of the entire world for Flight Gear in our ebay store!! |
