The premise of the game is to simulate unexpected emergency situations, everything from tire blowouts to electrical failures. The game does this very well. The game is designed as a pilot training simulator as well. Meaning that Wilco does not glorify crashes or fiery plane deaths, the game simply allows you to train under various emergency situations so you can become a better pilot. And there is the Random Failures in which you ll never know what to expect.
Random failures cover all types of unexpected problems, it even covers random weather.
Not all emergencies happen in good weather. As far as the games graphics are concerned, Wilco again does an excellent job of rendering the game s included airplanes. Gears move appropriately, there are spinning turbine engines and the flaps move very convincingly. The cockpit is also lit up at night and you can see both the pilot and co-pilot. Wilco does have a work-around at their website, but as of this writing there is no patch.
