Hi, I am into FS2002 and I can say I have a good skill in flying the Boeing airliners and of course the Cessnas.
However I am a reading type of person, I have gone through all the documentation that comes with FS2002 but I would like to continue. Has anyone in mind any more matterial on flying especially Boeings, Cessnas, Beechcrafts, Concords or any flying related material that can be used in FS2002 and it can be found as a freeware in internet? Any kind of documentation, online or download-and-play school/education would be fine.

I know my question has very broad range but anything of the above would be welcomed. Thanks.

Hi Poseidon,

Well, each time that you fly an airplane for the first time, it is good to read the acft checklist to know the specs, the climb and descend rate and to learn other things that you will never see in the FS2002 books if you don't look the check list.

And there is a lot of checklists in Simviation downloads.

Ciao

Hi Fredgirardo,

Actually I have been through the default checklists of FS2002 and as for the downloadable ones, if you are reffering to those PDF booklets, I have downloaded them all too. I was actually looking for something manual-type documentaiton. For the time being I am mostly into Boeings but also the other type of aircrafts I am reffering to my original message are of interest too.

Thanks anyway.

If you want to go "hard core", you're gonna have to spend
SOME money. Make a bid on Ebay, you will find just about any aircraft manual you would want(generally $20-100 US). These manuals will contain systems and procedures, but NOT any flying techniques for the most part, other than flight precautions (ie: don't land with the auxialiary tanks full, don't perform a forward slip with flaps extended....etc.). The only book that I know of with "big aircraft flying techniques" is called Fly the Wing by Jim Webb.

.....so I loaded up the plane and moved to Middle-EEEE..........OIL..that is......
