X-Plane is still the most comprehensive and powerful flight simulator available for the personal computer. Now, X-Plane 10 Regional lets you fly in your favorite region without having to purchase "the whole world." X-Plane 10 Regional includes scenery for specific regions. Available regions are North America and Europe. X-Plane 10 Regional has all program features of X-Plane Global.

X-Plane simulates anything that flies: from single-engine fixed wing props to multi-engine jets; gliders to dirigibles; helicopters to spacecraft to VTOLs such as the V-22 Osprey and AV8-B Harrier. X-Plane comes with 29 aircraft spanning the aviation industry (and history), and several hundred more are freely downloadable from the internet.

X-Plane has the most realistic flight model available for personal computers. It comes with subsonic and supersonic flight dynamics, simulating aircraft from the Bell 206 Jet-Ranger helicopter and Cessna 172 light plane to the supersonic SR-71 and Mach-3 XB-70 Valkyrie.

Fly into any of thousands of airports, as well as test your mettle on aircraft carriers, helipads on building tops, frigates that pitch and roll in the waves, and oil rigs. Weather is variable from clear skies and high visibility to thunderstorms with controllable wind, wind shear, turbulence, and microbursts. Rain, snow and clouds are available for an instrument flying challenge, and thermals are available for the gliders! X-Plane can download real weather data from the internet, allowing you to fly in actual current conditions!

X-Plane 10 Regional is available for Windows PCs and Macs.

New Features of X-Plane 10 include:
- Many high-quality aircraft models with detailed 3-D cockpits.
- A brand new system for auto-generating plausible scenery for the entire world.
- A new, highly-detailed cloud and weather rendering system.
