Flight Simulator X
Also known as: Microsoft Flight Simulator X, Flight Simulator 10, Flight Simulator 2006

Flight Simulator X is the culmination of nearly 25 years of the landmark Flight Simulator. Players will be able to experience what it is like to be a pilot and have real distractions, to shade their eyes from the glare of reflective paint and the glint from glass and chrome. Players will also enjoy the opportunity to fly their dream aircraft -- from classic seaplanes like the de Havilland Beaver and Grumman Goose to the Cessna 172 there is a plane for every terrain and every player.
