If you always wanted to fly but were held back by the expense and risks of flying real airplanes, you may want to give X-Plane a try. It is one of most advanced flight simulator software packages for personal computers and includes complete scenery of the planets Earth and Mars. X-Plane creates a realistic flight model by computing the forces to act upon each part of the aircraft. A wide range of aircraft are available, and you can build your own.

X-Plane is a flight simulator. Guided by a virtual “map” of the earth, you can take off from and land in 18,000 airports around the planet. You can pick from an assortment of default planes. But even more fun is designing your own planes. The details of the earth are amazing. Expect to see familiar landmarks in your hometown! Also included is a realistic model of Mars open for you to air cruise.

Gameplay

The gameplay is probably targeted for adults, because no military aspects have been included. It will still catch a kid’s attention, probably just not for too long. After learning the complicated flying controls, you will have quite a bit of fun flying around the world. Creators of X-Plane claims that it is one of the worlds best flight simulators. I agree, to the extend of my gaming experience.
