[BITList] Enjoy a Flight Simulation From Computeractive Magazine.

[Michael Feltham]

 From Google Earth

There is a basic flight simulator included in Google Earth

  www.computeractive.co.uk/2144514      for those who want an  
alternative means of getting around.  Either clock on the Tools menu  
and select Enter Flight Simulator or press the Ctrl, Alt and A keys at  
the same time.


Mac users should press the Apple key instead of Ctrl.  There is a  
choice between a fast F16 fighter or a slower propellor aircraft.  The  
flight simulator can start from the current location or from a  
selection of famous airports.  It can also use a joystick if there is  
one connected to the computer, otherwise a full list of keyboard  
commands can be found by clicking on the help button.

A basic Head Up Display shows the direction, speed and height  
information.  Don't worry about crashing, as the simulator just offers  
to start again from that location.

Good Luck.
