Pictured are students flying on a Bombardier Dash-8 Q400 from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport on St. Ignatius Aerospace Club’s flight simulator (Microsoft Flight Simulator X). The simulator is a great hands-on tool to educate students/members about aircraft aerodynamics, to train their piloting skills, and more importantly to inspire them to explore a future in aviation. In addition, this flight simulator also provides an opportunity for those interested in 3D modeling/architecture and game development to gain experience by designing or modifying airports and aircraft along with the rest of the flight sim world.
