X-Plane is a realistic and colorful flight simulation game from Laminar Research. It supports 3D terrain and elevation maps, and it includes a powerful physics modeler to simulate various weather conditions, such as rain, thunderstorms, wind shear, turbulence, and thermals. The demo version includes scenery for Southern California and limits gameplay to five minutes per game. What's New: Version 7.62rc1: Breakway-thrust simulation: no more slow drift.
