You have to follow ATC instructions, they will set you up for a 45 Deg angle, when the ILS (LOC) needle starts to move in, turn to the inbound heading, then keep the needle centered, then watch the glideslope, make sure to keep the arrow in the center, if the arrow is above the center, that means yo...

First off, YES!!!!! Most airplanes have a GPS, even the new small cessna's have a GPS. How real is FS, Alot of aspects of FS are real, most are not. Even though you can fly an airplane good on FS, does not mean you will like flying in real life, there is a difference on FS. Also, flying in real life...

To do your private pilots licence would cost around $5000 or about £3000. It all depends on how fast a learner you are. In florida for a 152 cessna, it cost $70 per hour (wet), and a cessna 172 cost around $89 per hour (wet). Add $30 per hour for the instructor, untill you can fly solo. To get your ...

To long for me to explain. Find a IFR tutorial. One thing people dont understand is just because you fly IFR, or do a ILS landing does not mean you always fly the autopilot!! If you ever get your instument rating in a cessna you will find out very fast that this is not the case!! And you will hand f...

Well I have been a pilot for five years. And thanks to FS, iv been able to improve my flying skills because FS is a good training device. I have saved alot of money training on FS. Being a pilot, I would say FS is far from the real thing, but not that far. Most real world pilots that I have talked t...

Thats true. ATC is not that good. Its very unrealistic hearing an american voice in the UK, or Mexico. The panels are not bad, I will give it that much. But the airport environment is down right a shame. The snenery is the worst of all, ie buildings, trees. The best part of FS is the aircraft, they ...

When I fly the C172, the ''P'' factor happens when at high angle of attack, and at low airspeed. It feels more like a yaw then a bank. The procedure is to put in right rudder. When you practice chandelles for the commercial pilots licence, at the turn out of a chandelle, the P factor is most very st...
