A revolutionary
new add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and 2004.
FSFlyingSchool - you'll never have to fly alone again! Recommended by
Computer Pilot Magazine (reviewed Feb 2008) and awarded PC Pilot Magazine
Classic Product Award.
FSInventions announces the expansion of
their product line with a new version of their FSFlyingSchool
add-on for FSX and FS2004.
 FSFlyingSchool2009 takes FSFlyingSchool to a new level with a host of new features.
Several incremental improvements have been made to FSFlyingSchool2009, including
adjustments to the ease or the
difficulty of satisfying your instructor.
* A team of Flight Instructors
who talk to you, giving you immediate, detailed advice on your flying
technique. * Unique scoring system rates
all phases of flight: taxi, take off, cruise, approach, landing and much
more.
* Fly a whole flight or just practice landings - you always receive a
detailed score.
* Your flights and their scores are tracked in full detail in your own FSFlyingSchool logbook (itself in 2 convenient
formats). * Submit your best scores to the FSFlyingSchool web
site to show off your flying skills to the rest of the world.
* Focuses on airmanship and recording your achievements. Track your progress
as you improve - take satisfaction from doing difficult things correctly.
* Works with dozens of the Flight Simulator community's favorite aircraft -
add your own in minutes. FSFlyingSchool's Career Analyzer provides an in depth analysis of all flights
flown with FSFlyingSchool. This unique graphic display
examines over 70 different aspects of the pilot's performance during
landings, circuits and flying in general. Each pilot in the FSFlyingSchool
pilot roster can be examined separately, with options to examine flights in
specific aircraft, or all aircraft together. Use the Career Analyzer to find
areas of your performance which need attention and concentrate on getting
them just right. Areas such as Landing Vertical Speed and Rough Turns are
good places to start.
* Highest scores come from good airmanship, often in challenging weather,
with the least automation, but you can fly at whatever level is comfortable.
* From a Cessna 172 landing in a thunderstorm to an FMC controlled flight in
a Boeing 747, FSFlyingSchool can handle them all.
* Instant tests of your airmanship: ask the instructor to immediately test
your skills.
* File a flight plan - follow it carefully to score more points.
* Large selection of options allow you to configure FSFlyingSchool
your way. *
FSFlyingSchool immerses you in the simulation using immediate
voice feedback from your chosen instructor.
* Fly anywhere you like and have your performance verbally evaluated and
added to your custom log book.
* Instructor tells you what you are doing wrong, when you do it.
* Instructor detects subtle things you don't normally know about: G forces;
trimming technique; taxiing in wind and lots more.
* Performance immediately evaluated while you are still out flying: do not
need to quit or even switch applications. No need to park or turn engine off
to get a score.
* Fly the pattern (circuits) around your favorite airports
and have them evaluated in detail.
* Always gives you detailed scoring of your performance; not a simple
summary.
* Failures system keeps you on your toes and your instructor can help you
spot them. Over a dozen basic systems can
fail, and in addition, so can multiple switches, gear, flaps, spoilers. Fuel
can leak too...
* Fly smoothly or you may damage your aircraft.
* Multiple instructors to choose from with different personalities, genders
and nationalities.
* Advises you of crosswind strength and relative direction at your intended
landing site.
* Instructor will advise you of your height, use of gear, flaps and more as
you approach the runway.
* Improves your flying skills; makes your flying more realistic and
attentive to detail.
* Finds bad flying habits you may have. Aspects of pilot performance examined by

- Imagine
your own team of Flight Instructors ready to accompany you on any flight - Imagine
your personal instructor evaluating your flying technique and scoring
each phase of flight with information you can use to fly better - Imagine a
comprehensive log book recording the good and bad points of each flight - Imagine
competing with the rest of the Web to prove your flying skills are the
best of the best With
FSFlyingSchool - you will not have to dream about flying, you can make

details for German users
here.NEW FEATURES IN THIS VERSION: Evaluates
landing with or without ILS at any runway in the world You can perform
an ILS approach or a visual approach to any runway, with the
instructor watching and helping you through the entire process.
Automatically
creates FSFlyingSchool profile for any powered airplane Any plane you
choose to fly will be automatically detected by FSFlyingSchool
and a profile for it will be created. Pilot Briefing
Tool analyzes all flights to find patterns of performance which
need improvement This unique
tool will look at all flights made with FSFlyingSchool and find
areas which need improvement and advise you of those which you
are perfecting. Option to
monitor correct use of aircraft lights Your instructor
will now, if you wish, add a whole new dimension to your flying
by expecting you to use your aircraft lights correctly. Instructors now
give additional warnings before mistakes are made We can all use a little help and your instructor now will caution you when you are about to slip-up. Instructors
have many new helpful and entertaining phrases Your instructors want you to enjoy the experience and help out with tips and the odd unexpected observation Aircraft system
failures integrated into scoring FSFlyingSchool pilots are no strangers to aircraft
failures, but they now score extra points if the pilot
retains control. Â Option to
monitor correct use of aircraft engines Instructor will be watching
your management of engines and looking for the proper technique. Engine fires These are
pretty serious, can lead
to exciting times and are very
dramatic at night. Â Monitors use of
emergency communications There is a
right time and a wrong time for this sort of thing
and your instructor will let you know if you mess up. Enhanced Help Already packed with acclaimed help,
the program is now even easier to use. Your instructor will also
give you tips on what to do. The in-program tips have been greatly expanded to help pilots get the most
from all of FSFlyingSchool's features.
New features in version 2.2:
Crashes recorded in Log Book
The findings of the the fictitious National Aeronautical Safety Board are
now recorded in the pilot's log book. These record the summary details of
the crash and data on vertical speed, IAS, ground speed,
engine(s) status, and lots more. These are of great help to the pilot who
wonders why an aircraft crashed in Flight Simulator.
By popular request, the pilot also gets a record of how well the flight had
proceeded up to that point.
New Hotkey
Pressing Ctrl Shift B provides handy data to the pilot who wants to know
current: AGL (above ground level), ground altitude and also displays the
count of errors (if any) that the instructor has noted in this flight.
To the sharp eyes of these instructors, flying the wrong way for half a
second counts as an error so these can add up fast! Customers who want the original version at the discounted price of $19.95 can order it here. For FS2004 and FSX. |
