This software has new aircraft and cities, true elevation data, and real-world weather conditions to give a true-to-life experience. The guide is designed to complement the simulator's manual by covering often overlooked aspects of flight operations, from creating basic fight plans to supersonic flight procedures and Category III instrument approaches. There are tutorial flight plans prepared by a team of private, commercial, and airline transport pilots, as well as certified flight instructors' advice on how to use this flight simulator as a real-world training tool. It also includes tips and strategies for multiplayer flight on Microsoft's Gaming Zone, aircraft-specific performance charts, US airport approach plates, and a full-colour map to help navigate the skies of Flight Simulator 2000.
