Flight Simulator

Flight Simulator is a text-based simulation of an aircraft. The game is based on an article in the book Simulation: Programming Techniques - Volume 2. The player is in control of an aircraft and is shown in discrete steps the current status of the aircraft and messages of the control tower. The player can manually define the characteristics of the aircraft at the start of each run (e.g. mass, fuel mass, maximum speed, time increment per step, etc.). There are two scenarios to play: take-off and in-the-air flight. Each time step the player will have to provide input such as thrust, flap angle, bank angle, elevator angle and trim angle.
