FSX had a couple missions with scenarios like this. "Limited Options" (see: https://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=FSX_Default_Missions https://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=FSX_Default...) simulated a dual-engine failure on a 737 over the ocean, which required a glide to one of a couple small islands near the Maldives.
Similarly, I enjoyed a mission that required landing a 747 in Singapore during a monsoon. I'm really looking forward to FS2020 and what it'll look like to do the same thing with the graphics enhancements and new weather simulations.
- skeeterbug 7y agoI loved both of those missions! The Singapore mission is so satisfying when flying ILS and then coming out of the clouds right in front of the runway.
- andrewmunsell 7y agoI wish ATC/your copilot was as interactive in free flight as it was during the Singapore approach. It made the missions feel much more real when you have some feedback other than text scrolling by in a window.
- mrguyorama 7y agoMany paid and free mods existed to do exactly that. There was even a $20 mod that turned FSX into an airline tycoon game where you purchased aircraft, ran flights, and dealt with emergencies and maintenance of those aircraft
