Google Earth Flight Simulator

Launching Flight Simulator from Google Earth

Hi! This is Andrew Morris again with visualaircraft.com. I wanted to show you little trick you might be aware of, if you like Microsoft or other Flight Simulators and you are a Google Earth user.

Now, you can go up to the Tools menu and actually start a Flight Stimulator right within Google Earth. Since I am just showing you the view port from Google Earth, I'll use the keyboard to launch the Flight Simulator Control menu that's Ctrl+Alt+A and you'll see the Flight Simulator menu appear. We have an F16 which we will use for a takeoff and the menu here shows the start position Kilimanjaro International. Joysticks are also supported. Objects using the track pad on my laptop, so we will begin start the flight and the view port's reposition we are ready for takeoff at Kilimanjaro International. I will click again and let the simulator know I am using the mouse rather than a joystick and it page up multiple times and you'll see on the left-hand side there that our runway speed is preparing us for takeoff.

So again visualaircraft.com, Andrew Morris just showing you a little trick that you might not have been aware of.
