FlightGear

Professional Flight Simulator

New Release, Version 2016.3.1

with bonus 400+ Additional Aircraft

New Release on 1 fully packed DVD-ROM

for Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and 10.

IMPORTANT SYSTEM REQUIREMENT: This software requires that you have a 3D graphics card with hardware accelerated OpenGL with 256MB of Video RAM. We recommend at least 4 GB of PC Ram for best results. Store bought machines with integrated video (onboard Video) are known to have problems, and may not install or work properly. If you are unsure of whether your PC graphics card meets these minimum requirements, please contact your PC manufacturer prior to purchasing this software. Please do not purchase if you cannot verify your video card.

The most complete Flight Simulator on !

More Aircraft included then any other vendor!

High Grade Flight Simulator can be used by professional pilots!

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 store!! Other sellers offer the US only, or Europe only.. Why waste your time with a partial scenery set. In our 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.

F14b F16, the Mig 15, and the Harrier! BF-109 T-38, T-37, T-50 Fairchild C-119 C160, C172R, C182 BR-761 YF-23 F15c Canberra B18 F7F-Tirgercat Ornithopter F18 CH47 Rascal OV10 F117, F-35B.

SeaVixen Most large commercial airliners! B1900D More light private plans Supermarine Scout + LOTS MORE+ This is the most complete and thorough aircraft package available. WAY MORE COMPREHENSIVE THAN MS Flight Simulator, BY FAR!!!!!!

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!

PACKAGE CONTENTS:
1. Contains 1 DVD-ROM disk only, (this is DVD is not limited or bootleg.)
2. The DVD-ROM does not come in a retail box. The Retail Box we show sometimes is for illustrative purposes only.
3. To keep our prices down, DVD is shipped without a box in a sleeve and mailer.
3. No artwork or paper manuals are shipped with the DVD. There is extensive PDF flight manuals included on the DVD.

Extensive and Accurate World Scenery Data Base
  • Over 20,000 real world airports included in the full scenery set (sold separately through our store!)
  • Correct runway markings and placement, correct runway and approach lighting.
  • Taxiways available for many larger airports (even including the green center line lights when appropriate.)
  • Sloping runways (runways change elevation like they usually do in real life.)
  • Directional airport lighting that smoothly changes intensity as your relative view direction changes.
  • World scenery fits on 3 DVD's. (I'm not sure that's a feature or a problem!) But it means there is pretty detailed coverage of the entire world.
  • Accurate terrain worldwide, based on the most recently released SRTM terrain data.) 3 arc second resolution (about 90m post spacing) for North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia.
  • Scenery includes all 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.
  • Scenery tiles are paged (loaded/unloaded) in a separate thread to minimize the frame rate hit when you need to load new areas
  • We now have support for seasonal texture sets, 3d clouds, and users can submit models of buildings, landmarks, towers, or bridges from around the world for inclusion in the FlightGear scenery. Accurate and Detailed Sky Model

    FlightGear 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 System FlightGear 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 Requirements The 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
    CPU AMD Athlon 2400 or newer
    CPU Pentium 2 Ghz or better
    4GB RAM RECOMMENDED
    3D graphics card with hardware accelerated OpenGL with 256MB of Video RAM, do not use with integrated video.
    Sound Card
    DirectX 9.0
    4GB Hard Drive Space (for all additional aircraft)
    Controls: Can use keyboard only, major brands of joysticks supported

    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 options A 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 store!!

    Questions and Answers - TECH SUPPORT DISCLAIMER - Please Read:

    What kind of documentation comes with Flight Gear? When you install the DVD on your computer, it creates a Start Menu folder on your machine. Inside the Start Menu folder, you can access several PDF manuals that go into detail how FlightGear works. Included is a 213 page manual that covers just about everything, as well as a separate 102 page FlightGear Flight School. Also included are several more quick reference guides in PDF format, and several dozen more readme files in html format. In short, TONS of documentation and instructions come with it, but you have to take the TIME TO READ THROUGH IT. We do not provide personal instructions or answer any tech support questions. How hard is it to learn to use this Flight Sim? The key word here is that this is a Simulator, not a game. It takes time to read through and understand the controls and learn how to fly, just as it would flying for real. You have to be willing to read through and understand what to do and which keys to push and so forth. This isn't a video game for little kids with 3 buttons to push. This is a simulator, expect to spend some time working at it to get good at it. That said, once you get good at it, it's more than just a game. This is a great self paced way to learn to prepare you for learning how to fly in real life. This is more of a simulator than a game, so you will need to read up in the above mentioned documentation on how to work the controls to get off the ground in one piece. Do you offer free technical support? Can I contact you for help? This item is being sold at clearance prices, and hence, WE DO NOT PROVIDE TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR THIS ITEM. ALL TECH SUPPORT QUESTIONS WILL BE REFERRED BACK TO THE MANUAL.

    Ok, lets be frank and honest here. You are purchasing a piece of software from us for a few bucks. We did not write the software, we are simply a distributor. We cannot afford to spend time emailing everyone telling them step by step how to work this software and what to do. There are HUNDREDS of pages of documentation included here, it is your responsibility to read through it. We're amazed by how many people from time to time email us and ask us literally "how do I fly a plane" as if we're expected to provide one on one coaching support through email and walk you through it. How can we possibly condense 300+ some odd pages of instructions into a 3 line email? And how can you possibly expect us to instruct you one on one? If you purchased a copy of Office from Wally World, would you call up Wally World and ask them how to format paragraphs in Word? I mean, we're trying to put some humor and perspective in here to illustrate what some folks expect and we don't know how much more we can tell you upfront as to what to expect later. And the funny thing is, this piece of software comes with more documentation than just about any other piece of software we have ever seen, and yet we still get those questions. Ok, with all due respect, please understand, we will not be answering technical questions on this product after the sale and coach you through it. We simply cannot afford to spend that kind of time providing support for this price, please be respectful of that fact. It is your responsibility to do your research and understand what you are doing with the program. If this is unacceptable to you, please do not purchase. By purchasing this product, you have agreed not to expect us to provide technical support and you agree to answer your own questions If you'll notice, our response is among the best in the business. Out of the few negs we've gotten in the past year, that you can count on one hand, much of them is from folks who email us and literally ask us "how do I fly?" and we feel we need to start addressing that in this listing up front. If you email us asking us "how do I work it", we will email you back and tell you to read the 300+ pages of documentation. We simply do not know of a nice way to address this any nicer, we're sorry if that bothers you.

    But c'mon, I'm having trouble, how do I get an F-16 off the ground? What do I do? What you need to do is read the manual that comes with the software. We are not in a position to provide tech support on this product. We cannot afford to spend the time doing it, and most importantly, we don't have a way to help you in an email and we have no idea how anyone could explain how to run this software in a two line email to someone who asks "what do I do?".

    All tech support questions, from the most basic to the most complex, will be referred back to reading the manual.

    Comments from happy customers:

    This shed looks great in my backyard. I used your shed plans and I am so glad I did. I probably built this shed for half of what it what cost me to buy one pre-built. Thank you for creating these wonderful shed plans, I really am glad I bought them and used them. Frank B, Ohio.

    I can't thank you enough. My husband finally built me the Gazebo I've been asking for for 5 years! He bought a plan from you and it turned out beautiful. I love it. Thank you! Allison B., Kentucky.

    .

    I needed a nice looking shed for my backyard in a nice subdivision. The plans you have made it so easy to do it, now all my neighbors want me. And it cost me half as much to build if instead of buying one. I really appreciate it. Danny H., New Jersey.

    I built this little shed over a 3 day weekend. I was able to make one trip to the store and get all the building materials on a trailer. When I was done, I had almost no left over material, and I did not need to make any last minute runs to Home Depot. Amazing detail and amazing plans you have here. Thanks. John F., Texas.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Why should I buy from you? There are lots of places to buy similar stuff on . What makes you so special?

    What separates us from the rest is that we want you to be happy. If you're happy, you'll buy from us again and tell your friends. Getting one sale from you is great, but we want the next sale from you and the next one after that. It isn't worth a few bucks to us to have one unhappy customer. If you are unhappy, tell us and let us try to fix the problem. How many sellers will say that?

    Yeah, so, there are lots of other sellers on . Are you saying the rest of them will rip me off?

    No, of course not. But, beware of what people sell on . Many sellers on here will charge you an exhorbitant amount for shipping. Many will "claim" to provide discount shipping only when you contact them, they'll tell you they'll take a quarter off the shipping price for each additional item. We never do that. Our combined shipping policy is clearly spelled out for those to see. No tricky or cheap discounts. Simple as that. Also, when comparing our films to those of others, take note of not only the price of the item, but also the content. You'll see that we not only offer more content per package then our competition, and not only at the cheapest shipping, but also at the cheapest price too.

    What if my disk arrives damaged?

    We offer a no muss, no fuss guarantee that all damaged disks are replaced free of charge.

    Satisfaction Guaranteed, backed by buyer protection!

    All items will be shipped out within 1 business day to your PayPal address. We will only ship to your PayPal verified address. Please view our shipping and sales tax rules on our shipping and payments tab above.

    All items are shipped by USPS first class mail. In an effort to keep our costs down, that are passed along as low prices to you, all of our disks are packaged and shipped in economic sleeves and mailers. All of our disks are labeled with a clean label and some graphics. The disks are made this way for speed and cost, which translates into lower cost for you. We focus our efforts on the quality of the material on the disk. We do not believe in charging you an extra 3 or 4 dollars like some companies out there just to throw in a 25 cent plastic case and slap a color label on an item. We believe you purchase for content, and ours is the best, although we still believe you will be pleased with the presentation.


    PLEASE READ ABOUT SHIPPING TIMES:

    The estimated delivery dates shown above are 's estimates, not ours. Sometimes 's dates are completely unrealistic. Every effort is made to get your item out the next day, but once it leaves us, we ask that you please understand that we do not guarantee delivery by any date, since the USPS does not give us a guarantee either. Below is our estimates on what to expect:

    USA CUSTOMERS: Most times, your package will arrive in about 1 week after we ship them depending on where you are at. However, lately the Post Office it seems has not been very cooperative with us and we've had a couple of customers wait a few days longer than that. If the item does not arrive, please email us directly and let us know, and we will make it right.

    NON-USA CUSTOMERS: Same deal above, except your packages typically have been taking about 2 weeks or so after we ship them. We've noticed that maybe 20% of overseas customers have been waiting as long as 4+ weeks for these shipments. The only explanation we can come up with is that it must be stuck in some container in some dock waiting on customs clearance. It happens, and for those 20% of customers, we apologize, but there is very little we can do about that. Your disk will arrive or we will replace it.

    Multiple items purchased by the same customer may or may not be shipped in the same package, at our discretion. We do not offer any additional discounts on multiple items other than the ones noted above.

    response Policy:

    Please offer us a chance to fix any problems before leaving us negative response for any reason by emailing us first with your problem. The only thing we ask from our customers is that if they have a problem, that they give us a chance to fix the problem for them before they leave bad response. If negative response is left without any prior communication, we will assume you are no longer interested in communicating and working things out.

    If you run into issues and wish to speak with us, we ask that you please refrain from opening a request on and email us directly by asking a question first, and give us a chance to answer you before you open a request!

    If you have any questions prior to offerding, please use contact the seller above and let us know. Thank you!!!!!!
