I have a question which a lot of people probably have on their minds, is the Bermuda Triangle included in FS9--as in if I were to fly over it would I crash ??? Thanks

I doubt it is, it's not in the USA so M$ probably didn't think twice about not including it. Anyway, it would get annoying if you crashed after a 13 hour long haul flight just becuase you flew in the wrong area.

One tip of the triangle does touch the US in Florida.
As far as being in the game, that would be cool.

It's there but Microsoft made the usual mistake and it's not where it is supposed to be. I find it all over the place. You'll be flying along and suddenly you are staring at your desktop. That's Microsoft's version of the Bermuda Triangle. Grin

"Triangle? We don't need no stinking triangle!"

At least I don't I'll crash in any geometric shape! Grin

Crop circle? I'm there Wink

I don't think anyone knows exactly where the Triangle is, it seems that it gets larger every year or so.

I suppose you could crash there if you tried hard enough e.g. insufficient fuel, flying nose down etc Grin

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

It'd be fun to put one of the available UFO add-ons in as some AI traffic flying weird timed routes that run from Fla to Bermuda to Puerto Rico and so on. Wink

Put in a small hidden "base" or three for them to fly out of and into....... so that they are not flying out of something like Orlando Grin

Yes, it gets beggier or smaller to explain any mysterious happenings in the general area.

Hahaha! So true! I always see that when I'm northeast of Anchorage (where there's 500 little airports packed in a 50 mile area), one look at my GPS and BOOM! back to desktop.
