Flight Simulator

Starting Flight Simulator

1. Open up the drop-down Tools menu in the top toolbar of Google Earth.

2. A small window should now open up. There are three parts to this, Aircraft, Start position and Joystick.

• Aircraft - Choose the airplane you would like to fly. The SR22 is a slower plane and easier for beginners while the F-16 is for more intermediate to expert users. In this guide, we are using the F-16 as an example.
• Start Position You can either your current view, starting off from a airport of a major city or your last position on the flight sim. Beginners should use the New York airport.
• Joystick - Check the box if you are using a joystick to control your airplane.
• At the bottom of the box click “Start Flight”.
• Wait a few seconds for the map to load.
