This tutorial starts from Half-Moon Bay (KHAF), a small airport on the coast near San Francisco, in clear, still, weather.
2008-12-31 16:25:45 +00:00
This tutorial will teach you how to take-off, and climb at 600 feet per minute. You will level off at 1000ft to complete the tutorial.

The nose-wheel and rudder is controlled using 0/Enter on the numeric keypad, or by using the mouse
in "yoke" mode with the left mouse button held down.
To switch the mouse to yoke mode, press the right mouse button until it displays as a + sign.
