I just released a minor update, mostly to fix some bugs but also to push some new features:
- Reverse: the A380 and MD11 are now equipped with thrust reversal. Keep pressing '-' or 'PageDown' to engage reverse. Hit '0' to reset thrust to neutral.
- Stall alarm: a screen overlay will warn you when you enter stall on every aircraft
- Dynamic air density: lift, drag and engine performance are degraded with increasing altitude. Maximum airspeed will increase as air density decreases. Service ceiling, cruise speed at altitude and rate of climb should respect aircraft specifications but has to be tested more extensively.
- All four runways are used as default starting point so to spread traffic a bit. (runways are randomly picked for the first visit on GEFS)
- Aircraft model packages are optimized to load faster.
- Su35 flight model has been revised to be a bit more gentle and forgiving.
- A380 3D model has been improved.
Have a nice flight!

Bueno!
yay Reversal yay i LOVE the su35 and a380. Thanks Xavier!
finally we can reverse out of the gate
these thrust reversers are great i landed the a380 halfway down the runway at lax and still came to a complete stop before the end
the ge plugin crashes every time you put the map up can you please fix this coz its f***ing anoying
Using Firefox 3.6.23 the talk feature loads quite slowly and I cannot see the flaps on the A380. It would be much better if fixed.
the thrust on the md-11 also stays at 100 now please fix also i couldnt get it above 30k feet without stalling WTF?????? please fix
For the next plane(s) i want a DHL 747 and a Lockheed Sr-71A or A-12 Blackbird

5.Space Shuttle
I forgot to put some planes on the list.

HELLO GUYS STOP ASKING FOR NEW FEATURE THE GUY IS VERY BUSY HE CAN'T DO IT ALL
It's a great flight simulator!! I wouldn't mind to pay a monthly fee if it could have more features. What do you think?
-- a
if its not free i dont play it
i know you are not listening to aircraft requests except i have got i really good idea you should add santa and his sleigh that would be cool
Aircraft are great but please don't place them on the runways. Sure hate to colide with on upon landing.
Hey i haven't flown on this for a while mainly because it is really slow i might play again when you release the next up date.
Azza........ Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

tjis flight sim is okay
would it be possible to make the hud like a glass cockpit with some of the planes i think this would be better copy and paste this link (its a bit long!) if you were to add something like to indicator on the left it would be great nice work with the sim

Great flight sim could you please put all the instruments that a real plane has in the cockpit if you can and for the next gefs aircraft can we have a 747-800 any airline
Is it just me or is the helicopter easier to fly at high altitudes?
Azza
Airforce 1 would be great
I DID IT!!!!!!!!!! i finnaly landed the Su-35 properly you have to reduce the power to 20% when approaching the runway to keep it in the air
Azza
Hey Xavier I flew to an island south of LAX yesterday and after I taxied off the runway I couldn't stop the plane from rolling when i was trying to park.
Can you please add a parking brake toggled by the b key.
Azza
i would like to see the cessena from the first version in 0.8.
great work on the sim.
Next 2 planes should be SR-71 Blackbird and B2 Spirit Bomber
Gefs has been lagging so much for me for me lately even after i turned multiplayer off can you please fix this problem.
Azza
Hehe I flew to area 51 yesterday
Xavier: I think for the next aircraft you should have one for planes and one for helicopters. Im one of the few that can fly the chopper properly on gefs so that would be great
Xavier: I was just looking at the forum and in one of your posts it said that you are working on a concorde. how long will it take to add it in also i cant keep all the wheels on the SU-35 and AlphaJet on the ground after touchdown.
Thanks for all your work on this sim, GREAT JOB!!!
Azza
when you tochdown make sure your speed is low and right when you touchdown hold the up button (to go downwards) i had the same problem
Ill do some testing with the SU-35
Azza
Hi, this is a neat online app. One request, could we have an auto pilot feature for level flight. When I get up there, at times nice to give my arms a break whilst enjoying the scenery.
Also, I have an iMac with a slimline wireless keyboard which does not have numpad keys or page up page down. Could you please make the reverse thrust use R key. Thanks, Steve
Hi, I have been trying out the simulator, great application and use of Google Earth. The only problem I have is not knowing the positions of the stick for roll pitch and yaw. The Google Earth inbuilt flight sim has this feedback, would make it a lot easier to fly than waiting to see what the reaction of the aircraft is to keyboard or mouse movements. Thanks.
AC-130 C5 Galaxy or AN-225 for next plane
What about new planes?
why not add a a340-500 and a330-300 and 777-300er all,a330 and 777 korean air
and a340 air canada
R is reset
And tell him to add the B-787
I think having R as reset is annoying because when you press T to talk you always knock R and get reset can you change reset to Esc?
Azza
Can this simulaor be configured to an rc flight simulator (mode 2) control box?
I am addicted to this simulator, simply perfect relaxing and knowing earth and countries. I think its nice realistic, just enough to think you realy handle an aircraft :) Thanks for this game, i love it!
i cant get lights to work on the A380??
Can you fix it?
My name is lufthansa in gefs and i love the a380 and the md-11, and now i fly lax to san deigo evry single day
Auto Pilot would be superb
Can you add Boeing 737-800 please
