"Not for dog-fighters. It is for pilots."
With patches and add-ons, this game can take you to "great heights" and gives you beatiful views. it is resource intensive, so check you computer config with the minimum requirements. otherwise you will be seeing frame progressions and long load times. also you need a joystick to enjoy this game to the fullest.
buy this if you are interested in learning how to fly (the terminologies and techniques). if you are looking for something like F22 of F18 dog-fights, this game just dosent have that speed and crash realisms.


"Fly, Baby Fly"
You all know, great game, great graphics, etc. This review is THE CONS.
1.Sometimes you can't move your plane as soon as you start and you have to restart the flight because in 2 seconds, the engine broke down.
2. Many geographical errors. The Statue of Liberty isn't there. Microsoft put to much work in details.
3. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG load times.

- To Fly is all i have wanted since i was little and game was right for me. Last christmas i got this simulaor and a sidewinder joystick. This game is so real i find myself yelling in my room because im doing barrel rolls in the extra. i play this simulator every day when i get home from school till i go to bed.You never will get tired of this simulator

There are so many things to do on this simulator including:

-Select a flight-where you choose a flight already made.
-Create a flight-you can choose your own plane, choose anywhere in the world you would like to fly and all the conditions of the flight
-Learn to fly-take lessons from instructor,Rod Dimacho, and earn your private, instrument, commercial, and airline transport Licenses.
-Multiplayer- Fly with other aviators online
-Library- You do not go to the local bookstore anymore! Get your charts, Ground school handbooks, and many others.

The only bad thing about this simulator is that the graphics arent the best.You may be thinking that if you fly off in your town that you can see your house but thats not true. Also you cant get the exitement of crashing out of this simulator, all it does is stick the plane in the ground and if you do not want to crash just turn that setting off and you will just bounce off things.

If you dont have enough money tot ake lesson or you just want to practice this simulator is for you.My uncle is a pilot and he is amazed on how i can fly just by playing this simulator.

Hope you liked my review!

"could have been better......................................"
The only reason I gave this game 4 stars is because i love airplanes. But there are some things about this that are just bad. for instance, when you go and try to taxi to the gate, GUESS WHAT?? There is no GATE!!!! Also the air traffic control is a little difficult to understand at first. AND the buildings suck on this game. ANd i go to put on maximum traffic and i go to land at LAX( one of the biggist airports)and there is like 1 or two planes at the airport, I mean what is that??? And landing is one of the hardest parts of this game. I come down at like 138 knots and roll of the runwway. The last thing about this game is that taxing is stupid. A real pilot wants to just go at a steady speed down the taxi way but instead i got to power up and then power down and then power up and the power down. [...]

"This game flies high!"
The avionics are great! I can takeoff, fly, and land in Hundreds of
airports around the world. It has giant skyscrapers such as the Sears Tower of the Gateway Arch. Fly NINE different aircraft, NINE!
I love this game!
The only thing is that my computer is kind of slow and freezes the game after about 15 minutes.
I LOVE THIS GAME
