• Large – Creates a large boundary.
Once you select a boundary size, you’ll notice two blue lines, one on either side
of the runway. During your landing, you must try to stay between these lines.
As your airplane gets close to the boundary markers, the colors will change as a
warning. If you get too close, they will turn red. Correct the flight path of your
airplane so that you are more centered on the runway.
Wind-
Every pilot must learn how to land with different wind conditions. In some
respects, this can be more difficult than takeoffs, since you must learn how to
deal with different wind conditions for each leg of the approach. The Wind
menu will allow you to adjust the direction of the wind. When you select the
Wind menu item, the following options will appear.
• None – Turns the wind off to simulate a calm day.
• Crosswind Left – This will set the wind to blow left across the runway.
• Crosswind Right – This will set the wind to blow from the right across the
runway.
• Upwind (Normal) – Upwind will set the wind to blow towards the nose of
the aircraft as you are on your final leg.
• Downwind (Dangerous) – This will create a tail wind during the final leg,
making it more difficult to land due to the decrease in airspeed.
Direction-
It’s important to learn how to land from any direction. This menu item will
change the approach direction to learn the controls from a different angle.
The choices that appear when you select the Direction menu item are as
follows:
• Left to Right – This will set you up to land on the runway from the left
end flying towards the right.
• Right to Left - This will set you up to land on the runway from the right
end flying towards the left.
Leg-
The Leg menu item allows you to practice each leg or segment of the
approach. The options are as follows.
