MCAS simulation is an immersive (AUGMENTED REALITY) news report in the form of a METAVERSE game that will give you a better understanding of how the MCAS works and how it led to Boeing 737 MAX crashes of Lion Air Flight 610 and Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 that you probably heard or read in the news. This simulation is going to consist of 8 parts with each part lasting about five to eight minutes. It is going to be structured in a way that you can easily skip a part and come back to it later. Each stage is important in vividly understanding the game as a whole. This game is for aviation enthusiasts who are interested in deepening their understanding not just of the MCAS, but also of how an airplane works through their interaction with the game.

Practise landing at Tokyo Haneda, one approach at a time. Fly with touch controls over Tokyo Bay and the city skyline in this 3D flight simulator. LANDING PRACTICE - Guided controls tour: follow the arrows to practise reducing and restoring thrust, banking and levelling, pitch, left and right rudder inputs, and braking. Observe the aircraft's response and check the highlighted instruments before the tour advances automatically - An illustrated lesson roadmap: progress from basic landing to centreline, soft touchdown, crosswind, a wide-body at night and a jumbo. Achieve each goal to unlock the next lesson and repeat completed lessons - Approach Coach: useful cues for speed, alignment, attitude, flare and braking, with an option to hide them - Post-flight analysis: review flight-path and altitude plots, touchdown sink rate, centreline offset, approach stability and a tip for your next attempt - Lesson achievements and the latest 12 results saved on your device FLY HANEDA - Eight approaches plus free flight. Preview the starting view and map before flying - Free Autoland Demo from approach to touchdown and a full stop, with visible control positions as a guide and manual takeover available. Assisted flights do not earn scores or lesson achievements - Five aircraft sizes: turboprop, regional jet, narrow-body, wide-body twin and jumbo, with different approach speeds, handling and stopping distances - Haneda's four runways, terminals, parked aircraft, Tokyo Bay and the Tokyo and Yokohama skyline - Morning, day, sunset and night, adjustable crosswind, clouds, runway lighting and PAPI - Aerial imagery from the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan and an optional live aircraft layer from OpenSky Network - Livery presets and individual aircraft colours FREE FLIGHT FEATURES - Angle-of-attack-based stalls, nose drop, sink and buffet, with recovery through your controls - Simulated radio conversations with distinct controller and pilot voices, plus four selectable callsigns - Pre-stall tones, STALL, SINK RATE and PULL UP calls, and altitude callouts during landing approaches - Separate switches for radio and cockpit alerts; English, Japanese and Simplified Chinese interface text PRO FLIGHT PACK: ONE-TIME IN-APP PURCHASE Flying, every course and aircraft, the controls tour, lessons, analysis, stalls, radio and cockpit alerts remain free. The optional PRO pack adds: - Ad removal - Live aerial and orbit camera views - 3D replay of your latest flight from behind, side, aerial, orbit and fixed cameras - Movie capture from aerial views or fixed points beside the runway, with aircraft-tracking pan or locked direction - Save and share landscape HD MP4 movies in 5, 10, 20 or 30-second clips. Movies contain video only - Minimise replay controls while keeping your playback position and camera settings Check your storefront for price and purchase availability. Free features remain available where PRO is not sold. Restore Purchases is supported. TOUCH CONTROLS Fly with the stick on the left and thrust lever on the right. Instruments and a mini map show your speed, altitude and position relative to the runway. Flaps, landing gear and speed brakes operate automatically. Available in English, Japanese and Simplified Chinese. The 34R Tokyo Bay long approach is a fictional training route. This game simplifies flight dynamics and procedures for play.
