What is the cruising speed of a 747 in flight simulator?
It claims the Boeing 747 can cruise at like 600 knots, but in game, I can't get it faster than 300. At 35,000ft, the airspeed indicater starts showing anything above 304 as red zone, and gives me warning sounds. This is slower than the game itself said, plus, I know for a fact 747's can cruise faster than 300 knots.

Can you fly a plane with flight simulator?
A PC flight simulator can be a great training device for practicing procedures, checklists, emergencies, and pre-flying routes for students and novice pilots. However, PC simulators are unable to replicate the motion, feel, turbulence, and handling which can only be accomplished in a real aircraft.

Does csgo need a good computer?
You do not need a very powerful PC to play CS:GO on high settings and a fast framerate. However, if you want to play at extremely competitive framerates such as 144+ or even 240+ FPS (refresh rates of very fast monitors), you do need a reasonably powerful PC.
