Pro Flight Simulator – Best PC Flight Simulator Game?
The Pro Flight Simulator 3D PC Game is fast becoming a favourite flight sim package from dedicated gamers, serious flight enthusiasts and noobies alike but is it the best flight simulator game for the PC?
Pro Flight Simulator – What Can You Expect?
Being an avid PC flight sim fan I have tried just about all the packages available. From Microsoft’s Microsoft Flight Sim, to Flight Yoke and Combat Flight Simulator they all have there strengths and weakness. However, after spending some quality time with Pro Flight Simulator, I have to say I am impressed in just about all areas of the package. Before we get into the features and aspects of the simulator here are a couple of screen shots showing the quality of Pro Flight Simulator graphics (very important in any PC sim);
This is a small passenger jet (Lear) and as you can see the level of graphics is excellent along with the attention to detail around the terrain and weather (more on this later).
This US military Jet also shows the level and quality of graphics, the terrain and weather patterns used are totalling customizable!
Is Pro Flight Simulator A Game Or A Flight Simulator?
This is a good question and in my view Pro Flight Simulator is tailored to both serious gamers as well as flight sim fans. The reason for this is that with over 120 airplanes to choose from both battle hardened experienced pilots and F16′s to the more sedate B747-200, the choice is enormous. All the aircraft show the same level of details and playability meaning you are able to relax and learn how to fly a plane or commence an air-air combat mission against friends!
Pro Flight Simulator – A Good Military Flight Sim?
As above, the Pro Flight Simulator comes with a vast array of aircraft including many of the popular fighter jets as well as military transport planes (Hercules for example) from which you can either hone your pilot skills or indeed the fighter instinct in you! I have been using ProFlightSimulator for nearly three months now and can tell you that I haven’t even gotten anywhere near utilising all the aircraft available. I am however concentrating upon my landing approach skills at the moment using the JFK airport, its not as easy as it looks I can tell you but with practise I am mastering it.
Customizing Pro Flight Simulator
This is where Pro Flight Simulator starts to set itself apart from the competition with its full customization options. This means you are able to easily adjust the weather patterns for any flight (wind, rain, hail, snow etc). Not only the weather but you can also change the terrain to suit your tastes! Along with all the customization options there is also a very important aspect to ensure that this 3D flight simulator stays ahead of the pack – all the terrain data is based upon US Defense mapping which is constantly updated to reflect total accuracy. Your purchase of Pro Flight Simulator comes with free updates meaning any and all changes to the terrain can be downloaded into your version of the software! its a bit like an evolving flight sim, constantly being updated to reflect changes I haven’t seen anything like this before in the flight sim space.
I am very pleased with Pro Flight Simulator and can only see it getting better as time goes on with the additional updates planned. This flight sim works on all versions of windows as well as full supported Mac versions. I also understand that for a short time there are some 4 bonuses being offered including some really useful flying guides, scenery designers, flight plans and even the Aeron Combat Flight Simulator thrown in for good measure!
This is without doubt (in my mind) the best PC flight simulator game out there at present, I thoroughly recommend Pro Flight Simulator to any flight sim enthusiast.
ProFlightSimulator Review
ProFlightSimulator is a new flight simulator PC game simular to microsoft flight simulator or flight sim x in quality of graphics and playability. We look into and review the Pro Flight Simulator package in order to understand its capabilities.
ProFlightSimulator Package
Many gamers first question is what is the Pro Flight Simulator Package deal? Well, that one is easy; here are the main features of ProFlightSimulator;
1. A range of 120 aircraft (planes, helipcopters, transport planes, fighter jets, spitfires, Boeing 777, Airbus 380 and many more) in stunning detail to learn and fly
2. Over 20k real world airports to fly into all of which are exact replicas of the real thing
3. Stunning realistic terrains which are drawn from US defense maps (highly accurate)
4. Highly realistic flight controls for all 120+ aircraft enabling you to learn to fly
5. Changable weather facility meaning you decide if you want rain over Heathrow or hail when landing at LAX!
6. Night flight capability – ever tried piloting an aircraft at night? its not as simple as they make out!
7. Multiplayer modes allow you to duel with other aircraft, friends and coleagues.
8. Ability to refuel mid air or even land upon an aurcraft carrier!
9. Compatable with PC and Mac and will run smoothly on both platforms (subject to a capable PC)
10. Free updates for life – changes in scenery and terrains (as US defense update there data) to ensure accuracy of experience
These features are just a small sample of what the ProFlightSimulator can do. I have used both microsofts and flight sim x offerings and can easily say this is by far the most powerful, realistic and value for money PC flight sim I have used to date. For me a picture paints a thousand words though – take a look at these ProFlightSimulator screen shots of what you can expect in terms of accurate terrain, aircraft and playability;

With ultra realistic flight controls and clear instrument panels, you are in the pilots hot seat – was that a safe landing?
Onboard the Boeing 777 – it is a big jumbo and one which requires expert handling and pilot experience, are you up to the challenge?
Whether you prefer to pilot fighter jets, large commercial aircraft or this twin propelled aircraft ProFlightSimulator has something for all budding pilots!
How is ProFlightSimulator different from other flight simulators?
In my view ProFlightSimulator provides a far greater user experience than other comparable flight sim bundles. This is a result of the enourmous range of aircraft, the fact that terrains are constantly updated to ensure total accuracy along with the fact that almost all flight attributes can be altered to suit whatever flight conditions you want. With the ability to change the weather whilst piloting a 747 at night from a spitfire duel over the coast of England in the blazing sunshine makes the ProFlightSimulator the best flight sim bundle around.
PC & Mac Compatability
ProFlightSimulator works with win 7 and all previous versions of windows. As with all flight sim PC games you will need a decent amount of RAM and a good quality processor. That said, the simulator is light on resources and even with my modest system I have experienced no problems running this excellent flight program.
Also compatable with all Mac versions, ProFlightSimulator is the must have PC flight simulator bundle for anyone looking to buy a flight simulator. Also, for a limited time the creator of Pro Flight Simulator is offering some excellent bonuses (as at the time of writing) including;
Bonus 1. Create your own scenery with an fully functional designer
Bonus 2. Kelpie flight customization planner – enabling full flight planning to any airport in the world
Bonus 3. Free Aeron combat flight sim game – very intense combat runs can be had with this!
Bonus 4. Free 281 page pilot flying and manourvering handbook
In summary the Pro Flight Simulator is a must have PC flight sim game for anyone interested in piloting true to life aircraft. With a complete range of aircraft, sceneries, terrains and customisations ProFlightSimulator is now the leading flight sim avaliable.
