Sadly GS doesn't have an X-Plane 9 page...


But I'm ok with that. It's really not a game, it's more of a simulation. In fact, X-Plane 9 is so accurate, real world pilots can use it to log hours if they can't actually get time in a plane. Pretty impressive, aye?


I decided to post a wee video (very, very wee) of me landing my Piper Malibu. It's one of the easier planes to pilot, and probably the plane I would own in real life were I given the chance. Anyways, enjoy.



I cut out a LOT of time in the air, to make it bearable to watch. Otherwise it gets a little boring when you can't seethe specifics of the dials and all that. When I recorded this, I didn't know X-Plane 9 defaulted to 320 pixels wide, and was expecting a much nicer video (as I run this at full 1080p). If I do post another, I'll make sure it's better quality.
