Aerowinx (PSX)

Precision Simulator is a highly detailed and reliable flight and systems simulator for everyone interested in realistic operations.


Run a flight deck mockup by feeding several monitors through multi monitor graphic cards or through networked computers, or run a single computer for solo training. Or network any combination that suits your needs. Panels can be zoomed, panned, divided.

Precision Simulator models the combi, freighter, passenger, and ER variants of the B744 series, and many selectable airline options.
