The Professional version of Flight Simulator 2000 is geared to Flight Simulator enthusiasts, real pilots, those who want "more features and more content" and those who are interested in using Flight Simulator 2000 as a PC-based flight training and proficiency aid.

Product Screen Shot
  • Position your aircraft on a specific runway at any of more than 20,000 airports. If you don't know an airport's name or alpha-numeric identifier, you can search for it by geographical area.
  • Look at airports, navigational aids, airways, airspace, general geographical information, and the course you've been tracking. You can enter your desired latitude, longitude, altitude, heading, and airspeed, or drag the aircraft symbol across the map to reposition it. Clicking on airports and navigational aids displays information about them.
  • Navigate the modern way, directly from waypoint (a point of reference along your route) to waypoint, using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver displayed in its own window.
  • Rapidly change your aircraft's attitude, location, or altitude without actually flying in real time. A great way to check out the scenery.
