I have a 2 year old 15″ MacBook Pro with a 2GHz i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a AMD Radeon HD 6490M graphics chip with 256 MB, set at 1920X1080, and by turning down all detail settings to “medium” I was able to get a smooth frame rate of a little over 30 frames per second. Detail is controllable from the settings menu, and if you Mac isn’t quite up to displaying everything in the highest detail, you can play with the settings until you get a smooth ride. The in-plane views were detailed, and beautifully rendered.Īll of the planes are beautifully rendered, and are extremely well detailed. (The Cessna allows you to “sit” in the left, right, or back seats.) Even a view that seems as if you are Superman, always a fun to try view. Some of the views available while flying include a chase plane view, inside the cockpit view, including views from all available seats. While I am not a pilot or an aircraft expert, I found that the various aircraft each had their own individual flight characteristics, and responded as you would expect them to. There are 8 different aircraft that are included in Aerofly FS, and they include:
You can also select any spot on the map to fly from, and if you don’t select an airport, the simulator starts you off in mid-air. Virtually all of the main airports in the country are included to take off from. OverviewĪerofly FS allows you to explore the beautiful scenery of Switzerland. The entire 41,285 sq.km (15,940 sq.miles) of Switzerland are available down to a resolution of 3 feet. That’s why I was pleased to get the opportunity to try out Aerofly FS from iPACS.
My favorite type of simulator has always been one I could just figuratively hop in the cockpit, learn a few simple controls, and then fly like a big shiny bird. I’ve played everything from After Burner in the arcades, to Microsoft Flight Simulator back in my PC days. I’ve always enjoyed flight games and simulators.
