Hey, Steve here,

Thanks for checking out my site, you’re reading my uncensored review, informing you of what I really thought about ProFlight Simulator – one of the plane simulation games available online today.

Note that this is a review site though, so Click Here if you’re looking for Dan Freeman’s ProFlight Simulator  website.

Firstly, why am I writing this? Well when I was considering buying ProFlight Simulator I couldn’t find many ‘real’ reviews that were actually unbiased and honest. So I decided to write one for people like you that are in the same position that I was in.

To clarify, I WILL be giving you a totally honest, unbiased review that will include BOTH good and bad points, so if that’s not something you want to hear, simply close the page now

So how does the simulator compare to the likes of Microsoft’s Flight Simulator? Well after trying both flight games I enjoy ProFlight more and according to Dan Freeman – the developer, his plane sim software will give you the feeling that you are actually flying the plane, with help from the real to life scenery & terrain. Furthermore you will get to choose whatever airport you like, anywhere in the world with some high quality graphics.

What does this flight simulator game offer and how is it better than Microsoft’s or any other on the market? Proflight simulator looks & feels so realistic obviously because it’s creator has put so much effort and work into its design to be so real. Also, adding to its realism, are the reactions of the aircraft when you shift positions. The plane’s cockpits are also impressive as they are actually based on a cockpit of a real plane. I was surprised to see detail down to lighting, for example on roads and obviously the airport lighting looks good with runway lights when coming into land.

As well as the lighting and the cockpits realism, it has the ability to correctly track the time (real world time), which is also used in turn to place the sun, moon, stars and planets in their correct positioning and also accounts for the seasons.

With the world scenery at your disposal, over 20,000 airports and 120 aircraft it is more than enough and so much so that I had to stop myself from flicking between different planes and actually spend some quality time flying with one aircraft for an amount of time. I suppose I was like a child in a sweet shop..! Now you know one pitfall to avoid when you start using your own flight simulator.

Obviously the simulator has full support for joystick control, which i highly recommend as it makes use so much easier, and i’ll tell you what, when you fly in a large aircraft like say a 747 after trying out smaller cessna’s, you certainly ‘feel’ the weight of the 747 on the controls.

If you want a good challenge then make use of the plane simulator’s aircraft carriers with it’s accurate and working catapult, arrester wires and elevators, and if you get good with the Seahawk then move onto the Seafire and see how you get on.

Moving onto some other features I found very helpful like the use of multiple displays which means that if you have other monitors you can set these up around you to give an even more real feel, spreading the view between many monitors. Or, you can setup monitors to display different views, so one could purely show the cockpit while your main screen could just show you flying.

The use of multiple displays vastly improves the realism of the flight simulator.

If you’re are serious about flying then the ability to record your flight is very valuable because you can then record and playback your experience to see where you could make improvements for your following flights. You won’t be restricted to only installing this on one computer either, so having the ability to install on as many pc’s as you like is a fine addition, along with the chance to play online with other pilots, and see their locations on a map, using Google maps.

The negative points for me are the fact that I started out using keyboard controls and it took me so long to work out the controls, it wasn’t funny. So unlike me, please read the instructions first if using keyboard controls, in fact I suggest printing them out for ease of use. And if you have a slow internet connection, you could be waiting a while as the download file is pretty large.

As I mentioned earlier, I also switched a lot between the aircraft and I found the amount available along with the ability of all the downloads on ProFlight website members area rather a lot to take in, but after a while I started to get familiar with it.

You can probably tell that apart from the few niggles, ProFlight Simulator ranks top for me so I just want to let you know the system requirements which I couldn’t find anywhere prior to writing this on any other reviews.

• Operating System: Win 98, 2000, ME, XP, Vista, 7

The quality of flying in this sim is exceptional as it responds realistically to control inputs. Uses some amazing real-world weather and physics to show what a real pilot can experience. ”
Fred Levy – Jersey City, NJ

All I have to say is wow. for the student pilots, like me, this is the perfect filler between real world flying. With all the places to fly to, it would take me months. If you love flight simulators… buy it! ”

I have hundreds of hours in PC-based 777 simulators and this Pro Flight Simulator experience is absolutely top notch. Everything in the cockpit is modeled very accurately – and you get to control every switch, button, and handle. Very immersive! ”
Jim Hudson – Lincoln, UK

I’ve recently gained my PPL so I wanted a life-like simulator – and I was really impressed with ProFlightSimulator. The set up of the aircrafts is exactly what you see on an actual plane.

They have data for thousands of airports and I was impressed with the accuracy of the visuals. All in all, an excellent game and well worth the money. ”
Kevin Jimenez – New York, NY

Excellent product. Scenery and clouds looks super realistic. Been flying the sim for over 20 years and this is the best one yet. Even if you have owned previous Flight Sims before, try ProFlightSimulator you will definitely like it. ”

Many people have dreams of becoming a pilot, and even a fighter jet pilot, but unfortunatelythat’s where it all stays for most, as people generally don’t know the first place to start looking to try and realise their dreams.

Obviously becoming a fighter pilot has to be via joining the armed forces, such as joining US Air Force or US Navy who use high performance fighter jets in defence against enemy aircraft, rather than the Marines or Army who tend operate mainly with rescue missions. It is this reason and the facts that if your dream really is becoming a fighter pilot that it’s best to consider the Air Force or Navy.

In order to be one, ideally one should be a commissioned representative having successfully completed advanced schooling. A further qualification you must satisfy for being assigned as being a pilot is made up of both actual physical as well as mental health testing.

You are likely to embark on this procedure by submitting a large and various amount of papers plus emitting yourself to numerous severe physical prerequisites, before you can actually be regarded for that job as a jet fighter pilot.

Just after completing all the mental health together with physical checks which will be employed as a way to establish that you’ve got what it takes for being a jet fighter, you’ll then need to be taken in to advanced airline flight education.

In the flight university, you’ll find out most of the primary things that one should fully understand so that you can fly any fighter plane in the course of an intensive battle.

Airline flight education is a blend of academics, plane simulation, meteorology plus aeronautical basic principles. A number of aspiring pilots will be placed in a large degree of difficult instances on their journey to having their dream realised of flying the particular fighter plane.

Just a select very few, will go on to be a jet fighter pilots subsequently after going to airline Flight University, as the everyday life connected with numerous people today rest on the shoulders of pilots, exclusively the best quality pilots will be picked out for a position to be a jet fighter pilot

Potentially, the foremost complex element in relation to starting to be a fighter pilot is figuring out the right way to fly a fighter plane. Despite the fact that you certainly will endure a huge degree of education while in airline flight education, acquiring a great deal of knowledge and understanding of the right way to fly the jet, ahead of joining the college will provide you with the upper hand upon your rivals.

You should ultimately have a passion in the profession. Learning to be a fighter jet pilot will not be straightforward, but it surely is just about the most enjoyable job which the military make available. Good luck to you on your quest to become a pilot, we will see you in the skies!

Since the first few plane simulation games were launched in the early 1980’s, the flight simulators have certainly come a very long way forward. The first ones released for home users were for the Commodore 64 computer and the Atari games system, followed by the Amiga computer. Just take a look at the image below showing how basic the graphics were.

Year on year the flight games have continuously improved, bringing with it more and more realism and it really isn’t too far away that playing them will be second to none.

It’s absolutely amazing what you can do today with plane simulators. For a start you can design your cockpits, make your own scenery as well as having the whole world at your fingertips with regard to the world’s airports, runways and terrain. This is certainly the case with my chosen airplane sim game as well as having over 120 aircraft available, which includes military aircraft.

Another feature that was thought to be way ahead in the future is the ability to set the time of day and that in turn places the correct positioning of the moon and sun and even the seasons. Further to that you can setup your own weather for the flight. Quite amazing really, just how far flight simulators and technology has come over the years.

Below is an image of today’s simulation game so you can see an example, compared to the above image, of exactly how far they have come in 30 years of development.

Something that I find very useful in today’s aeroplane simulation games is the ability to record your flight and actually watch it back later. This is especially useful for those who really want to improve their flying skills and have the ability to re-run their flight to see exactly where they can improve or do things better next time.

As well as today’s simulators being networkable, meaning that you can team up on a multiplayer basis online, the other great thing I like to do is use several monitors which will then expand your viewing area, and this can be done with more monitors to even give you a real 360 degree view.

So all in all there have been massive changes and improvements in plane simulation games from when they started in the 1980’s, up to today’s ultra realistic and technical games available, so however you play yours, have fun and some great flying experiences.
