I find XPlane to be pretty good too, but sadly it’s not free and therefore also not open source. Great choice for someone who’s willing to spend a few bucks.

I can also recommend XPlane. Available in Linux and Android, as well as the usual platforms. Also, it flies specifications for not yet constructed aircraft.

I’m really inspired with your writing skills and also with the structure to your blog. Is that this a paid subject matter or did you customize it your self? Anyway stay up the nice high quality writing, it’s rare to look a great weblog like this one nowadays..

Sadly, I have to agree with XmBill on this one. With those specs, there’s not a lot you can do besides upgrading your hardware.

Interesting that there was a Microsoft Flight ad on the FlightGear site when I went to it.

Your computer is severely under-powered. Looks like it might be time to upgrade if you want to play games or simulators. Especially your graphics card probably needs 1GB of RAM. And your system RAM probably needs to be at least 2GB. Might be time to bite the bullet. For around $300 on a low budget you could get a whole system minus monitor that would run it without any problems.
In the mean time if upgrading is not possible, reduce your graphics settings to the minimum. It won’t look too good, but should improve the lag if possible on that machine. Hope this helps.

Flightgear runs laggy on my PC (1.2 GB RAM, 128 MB SiS Mirage Graphics, Pentium 4 HT processor), any idea why is this happening, and how to solve it ?
