Overhauled fleet: Aircraft models that stand up to scrutiny, from the gear trucks to the rivets.

Additionally, the instructor can relocate the aircraft to a location of his or her choice at any time. The instructor can alter the time of day, weather conditions, and failure status of hundreds of aircraft systems and components. They can also have a friend or flight instructor (locally or via the Internet, working from an Instructor’s Operating Station) fail components on the aircraft without the pilot’s knowledge. X-Plane has detailed failure modeling, with multitudes of systems that can either be failed manually at an instructor’s command, or randomly when users least expect it! Users can fail instruments, engines, flight controls, control cables, antennae, landing gear, or any of dozens of other systems at any moment. Actual weather conditions can be downloaded from the Internet, allowing users to fly in the weather that really exists at their current location! Rain, snow, and clouds are available for an instrument flying challenge, and thermals are available for the gliders. Weather in X‑Plane is variable from clear skies and high visibility to thunderstorms with controllable wind, wind shear, turbulence, and micro bursts. The situations that can be simulated are unbelievably diverse! They can also realistically model the flight of remote-controlled model aircraft, perform an air-launch in an X–15 or Space Ship One from the mother ship, fly re-entries into Earth’s atmosphere in the Space Shuttle, fly with friends over the Internet or a LAN, drop water on forest fires, or shoot approaches to aircraft carriers at night in stormy weather and rough water conditions in a damaged F–4. Users can land at any of over 35,000 airports or test their mettle on aircraft carriers, oil rigs, frigates (which pitch and roll with the waves), or helipads atop buildings. The full X‑Plane scenery package covers the Earth in stunning resolution from 74 north to 60 south latitude. If those aren’t enough, users can design their own airplanes and test-fly them! Additionally, some 2,000 additional aircraft models can be downloaded from the Internet, many of which are completely free. Aircraft included range from the Sikorsky S–76 and Cessna 172 to the Space Shuttle and the B–52 Bomber. X‑Plane includes more than 15 aircraft in the default installation, spanning the aviation industry and its history.

X‑Plane contains subsonic and supersonic flight dynamics, allowing users to predict the flight characteristics of the slowest aircraft or the fastest. Welcome to the world of props, jets, single- and multi-engine airplanes, as well as gliders, helicopters and VTOLs. X-Plane 11 is the world’s most comprehensive and powerful flight simulator for personal computers, and it offers the most realistic flight model available!
