For all you new pilots out there I highly recommend starting with a Cessna or the Diamond DA40 because they don't have a lot of complicated buttons and switches to worry about. Also the icon A5 that you see near the end of this video is really nice and easy. I also recommend turning off the realistic damage settings so you don't have to worry about being too rough with your turns and getting ice damage from cold weather. Start off just goofing around and fly for fun. Later on if you wish to really learn how to fly you can turn those settings back on and learn how to be a real pilot when you feel comfortable

The standard edition is good enough. I was explaining to my brother this exactly, the default planes are good enough for now, but I see no need for additional planes (more expensive editions).

[@boeing-ys7wr]

As a flight sim enthusiast, this is definitely an awesome simulator with great potential. There are indeed some issues though. The flight models are very sensitive and don't feel as realistic as something like X-Plane. The systems are extremely lacking, and you really can't simulate exact real-world procedures in these default aircraft. The weather, although pretty, does not do a good job at matching real-world weather, and there isn't even an option to change visibility!! I do believe though that in about a year, once there is a large addon market and some of the issues have been revised, this is the future of flight simulation. Until then, I'm sticking with X-Plane 11 for my most realistic flights, and I'll use this for just having fun and exploring.

assetto corsa franchise has really good graphics if is that you are talking about, if it is about the world it self i dont really think that a racing simulator could make sense but something like a truck simulator could have a world like this. The problem is just that if you in the Microsoft flight simulator go close to the ground you can see how rough the textures are, the make is made to be looked from the skies, not really close like a driving simulator. basically what im saying is just for that to be possible you will need much more fidelity on your environment which makes the game even more difficult for current pcs to render and load, if a game like Microsoft flight simulator takes 4mins to load a game like that could take 10-20mins or probably even more.

@@shrestha0144 It effectively makes the wing wider for better lift and "shifts" the wings angle so that it generates more lift at lower speeds.

[@apenguin84]

Subham Shrestha so when you take off, flaps help create lift. Basically the mire flaps you have, the less speed you need to climb, but you loose speed. You also want to deploy flaps during landings to make sure you don’t descend too fast, and to make sure you don’t land going too fast. When landing you usually deploy flaps to full, but full flap landing were very hard for me to get used to when I was new

As a very serious flight simmer, I can tell that this is what we are looking for for many years. Finally, someone has the right tools to mix all together and create this product. As you said, this is a simulator game. But comparing with other Sim products existing in the market I think there is room for improvement here. for most of the popular plains the sim offers, there are missing very important functions which make the sim experience more immerse. Yes, we got gateways, fuel trucks, catering, and baggages trucks as well, which helps a lot, but FMC (which is crucial when you got a nice 747 or A320) is not finished yet. Another chapter are the iconic buildings. Some are missing around the world. This should be room to pay products I guess as the extra airports and planes are. This is my opinion and of course, there is a lot, lot more to talk about. But again, this is something that we were waiting for much time and we are glad that finally exists!!
