X plane 11 plane downloads simulator#
It may be the only true SIMULATOR out there, with others being sort of "simulator-simulators." But in X-Plane, it actually CALCULATES THE PERFORMANCE, based upon actual aerodynamic laws. Yes, it's possible to model the performance of, say, an F-22 with extreme detail in a dedicated sim. rather than building a model derived from an actual plane. One of the fun aspects of X-Plane is that, unlike most other sims, it actually MODELS AERODYNAMICS. Also, if you can find it, you might enjoy trying out the MARS SCENERY add-on, which provides a fully-realilzed (based upon radar mapping of the actual planet) Mars environment, complete with the different atmosphere (much thinner, so much less lift!) and gravity (~1/3 that of Earth) found there. DO get the "global scenary" add-on disk, which makes it possible to literally fly anywhere on the planet from anywhere on the planet. It's a phenomenal sim, even if the graphics aren't quite up to the photorealistic standards modern kids seem to expect.
If you've never tried X-Plane, absolutely give v7 a shot. but have never beaten this one, which set the standard for how the program actually RUNS. fully-realized 3D cockpits, prettier graphics, more detail, more special effects.
Later revisions of X-Plane have added a lot of extra GLITZ. All the prior releases (and I tried every single Windows release from the first one, mind you!) were. X-Plane v7 was the first release, IMHO, in which X-Plane really became a GOOD.
