It’s not CAD related, or is it? When you think about it Flight Simulator combines:
- A global terrain model (GIS)
- Aircraft models (Mechanical)
- Airport facility models & database (24,000+ airports) (Facilities Management)
- Operational System models – Aircraft, Air Traffic Control, Navigation, Radio…
- Advanced 3D modelling, sophisticated graphics display technology and more…
Perhaps there is justification for running FSX on my home CAD machine as a test application… Apart from the fact that it’s fun!
