When I am flying off on my holidays I always try to get a window seat so that I can see everything that is happening from when the plane taxis down the runway perimeter track, to turning on to the runway threshold and the pilot running up the engines ready for take off Then the surge of excitement I get as the pilot opens up the throttles and the engines roar with tremendous power,the pilot releases the brakes,the plane starts to roll and gathers speed down the runway until it is moving fast enough for the aerodynamics to take over and the plane lifts off and becomes airborne. WHAT A THRILL!! It is then that I wish I could be the pilot flying this powerful aircraft with all its passengers and crew. However,all is not lost, it is possible to simulate the experience and thrill of taking off flying and landing an aircraft without all the years of dedicated training and expense that a pilot has to endure and you can find out this out by using a flight simulation system. Employing flight simulation at home on your computer has changed beyond recognition in recent years. What used to be known as computer games has become more sophisticated these days.So,if you want to find out how to simulate flight this is the way to go. These computerised games systems can be so realistic they allow the operator to sit at home and experience the thrill of sitting on a flight deck or in a cockpit and feel as if you are actually flying the aircraft. Therefore anyone wanting the actual reality of flying without the risks and dangers of flying a real plane; using a flight simulation programme is the answer. This means of course, that it is possible to simulate flying a variety of aircraft from jumbo jets, to helicopters, to military aircraft, to light planes and the opportunity to sit in a state of the art realistic 3D flight deck or cockpit and have complete control as you simulate flight. You can give yourself so many different experiences of flying from:- Flying passengers. Mercy missions. Combat missions. Flying anywhere in the world. Flying your family on holiday. Learn to master flying any of 100+ aircraft. Use controls based on real life aircraft controls. Go night or day flying. Change weather conditions. See and change amazing scenery. Test your flying skills with helicopters. Fly the latest military jets. Fly civil jet or prop aircraft. Change the elevation of the runway. Use real time integration with google maps. You can have realistic cockpit or flight deck views. Use air to air refuelling. You can work with other simulation flight fans to fly in formation. Fly using auto pilot. If you want to learn to fly then you can try a flight simulation programme.
