Any one that has flown in an aircraft in their lifetime must have wondered what it would be like to be the pilot. For some of us it will not be just a thought, but more like a desire . In our modern scientific world it is possible learn how to be a pilot using simulation flying without the risks and dangers of actually piloting a real aircraft. Simulation flying is a virtual reality computerised system that allows anyone to sit in their own home and experience the realistic thrill of flying. It is just as if you are sitting on the flight deck of a jumbo jet or in the cockpit of a jet fighter or at the controls of a helicopter or a light plane. So, for those of us who really want to feel they are flying then using a flight simulator system is the answer to our dreams. It means it is possible to have all the thrills of flying in a variety of aircraft whether it is military, civil airlines, light aircraft, helicopters; all through the medium of a reality 3D flight deck or cockpit giving complete control of the aircraft with the opportunity to fly anywhere in the world. So, as you can imagine it is possible that you can find out how to be a pilot by using flight simulation systems Whatever your particular flying dream might be it means you have the facility to programme yourself to pilot a military fighter on a defence mission or pilot a 747 on a holiday flight with a full passenger list to anywhere in the world you want to go. Or perhaps you would rather fly a helicopter carrying important passengers to say a government meeting. Or, more simply, imagine flying yourself and your family away to some exotic place for a holiday or, just perhaps for a long weekend. Whatever you decide it means it is possible that you can learn to be a pilot using flight simulation. All of these exciting things are possible through using flight simulation and there is more to it:- Check your simulated flying skills out with different aircraft types. Imagine simulating landing at hundreds of different airports night or day. Imagine simulating flying over your own home. Why not try using simulation to fly anywhere in the world. Just think of how you can simulate and control the change of fabulous scenery as you fly. Why not try to simulate flying during daylight or night time. Think how of how you can simulate the control of realistic night runway lighting for any airport in the world. Imagine simulating the thrill of controlling an aircraft as you take off or land. Why not take a rest from your actual flight simulation and use auto pilot!. If you are flying a military aircraft on a long mission you might need to simulate using air to air refuelling. With the best flight simulation software out there you can even obtain 100% free updates/upgrades to keep your enthusiasm going. If anyone wants to find out about flying but without actually piloting a real aircraft then there are sophisticated systems available that can show how
