I have been receiving too many questions (and sorry not have answered all) about FSX "autopilot" and "autoland" on default game setting (without any add-on).Q: Does FSX give any possibility of autopilot and autoland features without add-on?A: Basically, it is not 100% autoland nor autoland as long as there is NO FMC (Flight Management Computer), thus technically it is NOT autopilot/autoland.

Not flight simulator but airliner management sim game based on web (no need to buy a software), AirwaySim.

Microsoft Flight Simulator which was born 3 years before the first Windows launched, is expected to face the tough decision not to sell new version of this well made software. At least that is exactly how Microsoft is trying. Here is the petition to support for Microsoft's Flight Simulator Franchise. http://www.supportflightsim.com/

Boeing B747-800 is the extended version of B747-400 with longer body with the passenger capacity between B777 and A380, Lufthansa has already ordered B747-800 just to take cover different demands, but for now B747-800 will be more often used for freighter (B747-8F) as the delay and cancellation of A380 caused this. B747-800 will be the longest commercial airliner (240 ft or 76.4m) than the

Many FSX fans make many fsx videos just like myself, I would like to suggest for anybody interested in making fsx video. What do you need? 1: Flight Simulator X (game soft). It is a MUST requirement. 2: Video capture software: FSX itself has photo capture feature integrated, but for making video, video capture soft is required. GameCam (payware or freeware), payware covers sound, but if you

LOC (Low Cost Carrier) or budget airline has been the key success in the free aviation market. Airlines which fly as low cost as they can manage, in order to make profits. Today even big International airlines try to have own LOC, some reasons should be addressed. 1: short haul flight, city hopper,  are not necessary to pay expensive ticket specially tourists. No need for meal nor drink as

Airbus A350 XWB (Extra Wide Body) is still under development and will be due to appear in the market after 2013. For the fear of Boeing 787 which has received many orders so far, Airbus's answer is A350 XWB. Still under development, so we will not see the final model for this project, but it does seem like Airbus A350 will have 3 models. A350-800, 900 and 1000, all of them are long range (

Tiger Airways is probably the most suited for short-medium range LOC (Low Cost Carrier) which was created by Singapore Airlines based in Singapore Changi Airport just like the mother company.

Tiger Airways management is similar to European budget

Lufthansa of Germany has started new merge discussion with Scandinavian Airlines mainly because SAS has been performing badly.
