FSFlyingSchool Features

This unique graphic display examines over 70 different aspects of the pilot’s performance during landings, circuits and flying in general. Each pilot in the FSFlyingSchool pilot roster can be examined separately, with options to examine flights in specific aircraft, or all aircraft together. Use the Career Analyzer to find areas of your performance which need attention and concentrate on getting them just right. Areas such as Landing Vertical Speed and Rough Turns are good places to start.
* Highest scores come from good airmanship, often in challenging weather, with the least automation, but you can fly at whatever level is comfortable.
* From a Cessna 172 landing in a thunderstorm to an FMC controlled flight in a Boeing 747, FSFlyingSchool can handle them all.
* Instant tests of your airmanship: ask the instructor to immediately test your skills.
* File a flight plan – follow it carefully to score more points.
* Large selection of options allow you to configure FSFlyingSchool your way.
* FSFlyingSchool immerses you in the simulation using immediate voice feedback from your chosen instructor.
* Fly anywhere you like and have your performance verbally evaluated and added to your custom log book.
* Instructor tells you what you are doing wrong, when you do it.
* Instructor detects subtle things you don’t normally know about: G forces; trimming technique; taxiing in wind and lots more.
* Performance immediately evaluated while you are still out flying: do not need to quit or even switch applications. No need to park or turn engine off to get a score.
* Fly the pattern (circuits) around your favorite airports and have them evaluated in detail.
* Always gives you detailed scoring of your performance; not a simple summary.
* Failures system keeps you on your toes and your instructor can help you spot them. Over a dozen basic systems can fail, and in addition, so can multiple switches, gear, flaps, spoilers. Fuel can leak too…
* Fly smoothly or you may damage your aircraft.
* Multiple instructors to choose from with different personalities, genders and nationalities.
* Advises you of crosswind strength and relative direction at your intended landing site.
* Instructor will advise you of your height, use of gear, flaps and more as you approach the runway.
* Improves your flying skills; makes your flying more realistic and attentive to detail.
* Finds bad flying habits you may have.
