Learning to Fly

Recently, Microsoft released a free version of their popular "Flight Simulator" game. We installed the game on a few of the computers, and let some of the kids earn their virtual wings.

The kids had a lot of fun piloting the plane through various scenarios, including landing on water, landing in bad weather, flying through rings, and more.

The game is pretty cool, and can be downloaded for free here.
