MSFS used to be ridiculed for making it possible to fly 747 inverted under a bridge and recover. After seeing the pretty images from the latest Microsoft Flight Simulator, I’ve decided to find out whether the new version features a more physically sound flight model.
To save someone a search, it appears[0] that aircraft in MSFS is aerodynamically overly stable, and it doesn’t seem like relevant aspects have received much of an overhaul under the hood. My conclusion so far is that X-Plane remains unbeaten among consumer-viable choices as the most precise, if not the most picturesque.
