Flight Simulator

Do you have MS flight simulator for your PC? I do and I like it, but if you don’t want to blow the money then there is one more free money. Also this option will work on a Mac or PC. It is called Google Earth. That is right with the new version of Google Earth 4.0.3 (I think) you can use a feature called flight simulator. While it is not the best it will still let you fly of the pictures made by Google Earth. The only drawback I have found so far is the fact that this can turn Google Earth into a very power-hungry application.

To do this all you need to do is open Google Earth and then look in the top menu bar. In the top menu bar you look for the tools menu. When in the tools look for the open flight simulator button. When you click this it might be a second, but it should then change from the earth to a flight simulator window were you can change all the settings. Once you are done changing the settings then you should be presented with a plane on a runway. From here you can take off and fly were ever you want to. There isn’t much of a “control panel” you could call it, but it works. You can;t complain because it is free. I think that in the future somebody could/should be able to add in a control panel for the airplane.

Thank you for reading this post and I want to invite you to come visit me on Twitter @ Computerwhiz1 on Twitter Also I am on many other sites like that such as friendfeed and Plurk. Also please comment on the post. What do you think about the flight simulator?

NOTE:I have now started going to school. So as you know this means that the posts will be slowing down due to the lack of free time. I hope to do a minimum of 2 a week, but that may not happen. So as you can see i would appreciate it if you could just leave me some topics whenever you want to. If it is free I will review it.
