Getting Your PPL - Where to Begin & Pick the Best Simulators

At your local airport, you are going to meet people who fly and know how to go about learning to fly. They will be able to give you the absolute best and accurate advice in regard to getting your PPL.

Think about it. Are you going to ask your Uncle Horace, or some guy who has been flying for 25 years?

Airports are where the action is at. That's where you begin.

How Good Are Simulators...Really?

Let's cut through the crap and get real here. No flight simulators are going to give you the actual experience of flying an airplane.

Having said that, after doing quite a bit of research on this subject and getting the opinions of experts, there are a number of flight simulators out there that are quite good.

Here are the best of the best:

Microsoft Flight Simulator

Say what you want about Microsoft. Yeah, they create a lot of crappy products and their OS leaves a lot to be desired, whether it's Vista or whatever. But their flight simulator is hands down the best in the industry.

Flyit Simulator

They call it the new standard in aviation training. Flyit offers FAA approved fixed wing and rotorcraft Flight Simulation Devices for flight training; desktop control panels, motion platforms, cockpits, display systems, and complete simulation environments. Fixed wing, rotorcraft and Flight Training Devices for general aviation, commercial, and military aircraft..

Elite Simulation Solutions

If you want the very best hardware for your simulator, this is the place to go.

There you have it, the best of the best as far as flight simulation.
