Publisher's description of Micro Flight
From Quality Simulations:Micro Flight is a state-of-the-art flight simulator specializing in simulating ultralight flying vehicles and micrometeorological conditions. Unlike other flight simulators, Micro Flight integrates the intricate flow of air over the ground and the effects of thermals created by the sun, making it ideal for simulating gliders of all types. Micro Flight also simulates types of vehicles not included in other general aviation programs, such as hang gliders, paragliders, gyroplanes, helicopters, trikes, and balloons.
Version 5.0 features a more-accurate terrain engine, improved sea graphics, and smoothed land shores.

Editor's review of Micro Flight
This program distinguishes itself from other flight simulators by concentrating on ultralight vehicles. Installing Micro Flight takes a while, mainly due to its advanced graphics. You can customize most of the game's features, including screen resolution, music, and the plane itself. The only thing you cannot change are the control buttons. The game offers no tutorial, so newcomers to the flight-simulator genre will be lost. You can turn on Auto Pilot if you only want to watch rather than play. The flight physics are sometimes not very realistic, especially when your plane gets close to landing. Also, we think the five-minute trial limitation is way too stingy, so you don't have time to really get into playing the game. Still, aeronautics enthusiasts and flight-simulator fans should find a lot to like in Micro Flight.
