Playing the game is simple:

  • Download and install Google Earth
  • Press CTRL+ALT+A after starting Google Earth for the first time to enter the flight simulator.

Once you’ve done this you get to choose between two planes, a F-16 and a SR22 whcih can be flown between several airports. Joystick support is also available if you are a serious gamer.

It’s amazing to see what the microsoft team get up to when they should be working!
