News Article Title : Microsoft Flight Simulator: A Century of Flight Category : PC - Windows Date Added : 2003-04-01 04:52:58 One hundred years on Microsoft Corp, is celebrating the achievements of pioneer aviators with the launch of its "Microsoft Flight Simulator: A Century of Flight" - regardless of whether Pearse was airbourne before the Wright Brothers or not. The new "Flight Simulator" software enables people to get in the cockpit of legendary aircraft such as the Wright Flyer and the 'Spirit of St. Louis' to step back in time and recapture the feeling of flying those planes. New engaging features such as interactive multimedia provide a wealth of historical information on the planes that shaped aviation history and the pilots who flew them. Informed and insightful articles explain all there is to know about Microsoft’s "Flight Simulator" and the 24 aircraft included in the software. "Microsoft Flight Simulator: A Century of Flight" also introduces an updated, dynamic weather system, enhanced automatically generated scenery (AutoGen) and detailed visual effects. It also has improved Air Traffic Control functions and 3-D interactive cockpits, as well as 15 modern aircraft, including the Boeing 777, the Beechcraft Baron and the Robinson R22 helicopter. Would-be pilots operate the "aircraft" from a horizontal hip cradle, using hand levers and a shifting hip mechanism to control virtual takeoffs and landings in front of a giant panoramic projection screen. |
