I got it to work. I'm good for awhile then I get into these uncontrollable spins and crash.

Unless you pull back for too long, in which case if you keep pulling, they'll get REALLY big REALLY fast. PUSH!

Took a while to get to work, but I flew for a while. I was kind of disappointed in the visuals though. I was hoping for a more 3d view instead of the mostly flat. I shouldn't complain though since it's free. |

if you click your mouse, then you can control with that, and it's a lot easier.
click again and it's back to just keyboard controls. |

You can play with the terrain settings to change that, at least in areas with a lot of canyons and the like.
Better than the flight sim in Excel anyway
