Scoring system rates all phases of flight: taxi, take off, cruise, approach, landing & more
Fly anywhere in the world with an instructor
Easy to use! Land anywhere you like and your instructors will know which runway you have chosen. Just get lined up with a runway ahead of you when you descend in landing mode. The instructor will look ahead, figure which runway you are heading for and announce where you are going to land.
Instructor knows which runway you are taking off from. Instructor will comment and give advice on the runway you have selected.
Instructor knows which runway you are landing at. Even without ILS, and will give advice on how to land.
No need to land on a fixed point on the runway. Any reasonable landing on a runway will get a reasonable score.
Spoken Teaching Tips. Option so that FSFlyingSchool will speak a series of helpful tips when you fly. Tips are always in the same voice and are clearly different from a normal 'instructor' voice. These tips are like training wheels on a bicycle and are telling you how to use FSFlyingSchool and X-Plane itself. Once you have got the basics of these operations down, you may wish to turn these basic tips off.
Friendly scoring system. Rewards all flights which were basically safe - higher scores require plenty of skill. If you can walk away from your landing - you will get a score. If you crash - you will not!
Numerical data added to log book. Shows details of flight performance, such as landing speed, distance from threshold, approach accuracy and more.

In takeoff mode and on ground with autopilot on - Warning that autopilot must be off during takeoff. Shortly after beginning takeoff - Advice to move throttle smoothly up to full. Shortly after beginning takeoff - Advice that the nose wheel can be lifted at 55 KIAS. Shortly after takeoff - Reminder that this aircraft's 'vX' (Best Angle of Climb Speed) is 62 KIAS at sea level.
