This is the second in a series of posts showcasing the Google Earth plugin.
Today we are looking at the unofficial Google Earth flight simulator known as GEFS Online. Google Earth has a built-in flight simulator that you can learn how to use here. GEFS Online expands on the idea with a number of significant features not available in the built-in version. These features include, amongst many others:
- A better looking onscreen instrument panel, with more instruments than are found in the Google Earth version.
-
A wide range of aircraft, including helicopters and a balloon, as opposed to the two aircraft available in Google Earth.
-
Dynamic suspension on the aircraft.
-
A wider range of controls that are also customizable.
-
Multiplayer mode, allowing you to see other players’ aircraft, as well a chat.
-
A global map showing airports and other players.
-
Engine sound effects.
Flying over Sion, Switzerland, which recently received 3D imagery.
The map shows airport locations and basic stats, as well as the location of other online players.
