Have an Adventure
When you’re ready for a flight complete with
instructions from air traffic control (ATC) and even
some help from a copilot, try flying one of the
many Adventures. Flight Simulator 2000 offers
new Adventures that test your skills in a variety of
aircraft and take you to interesting places.
Adventures aren’t just guided tours: fly in under
the radar to land in Red Square; beat the clock in
a helicopter by landing in three different locations
in a set amount of time; or land your Cessna on
an aircraft carrier off the coast of San Francisco
after you experience an engine failure.
Create a Flight
You can also create your
own customized flights in
the Flight Planner. Choose
an aircraft, departure and
destination airports, the date
and time, weather, and so
on, and you’re ready for
takeoff. You can also use
auto-routing or GPS, and
Flight Simulator will find a
route for you. Nearly every
detail of a flight can be
determined ahead of time.
You can even download
real-time weather. The
following is an example of a
flight you might create.
Fly Over Wembley Stadium
Perhaps you’ve always lived and breathed soccer
and rather than join the fans down below, you
decide to fly over Wembley Stadium in London,
England, home of the Football Association (FA)
Cup soccer finals. In the Flight Planner, start by
choosing an aircraft, such as the Cessna Skylane
182S. Next, look up airports in the London area.
For example, you can take off from Roberts
airport. Set the date for game day, and plan a
departure time of around noon so that you have
plenty of time to make the kickoff. Finally, set the
weather as clear skies with a light wind, so you’ll
be able to see the match! Actually, you won’t be
able to see the match, but you certainly will have
the best seat in the house.
