All in all, the power and capabilities of the F/A-18 make it a joy to fly and a superb addition to the simulation.
#FSX ACCELERATION FREE#
Once you've played through the missions, you are, of course, able to set up your own free flights with the Hornet, and if you explore the oceans you'll find other operational carriers. Be sure to experiment with the knobs in your cockpit we were surprised to find the radar and other electronics (other than weapon systems) were fully functional.

The others include everything from flying cover to protect a rocket launch from Cape Canaveral to investigating and tracking an unusual flying vehicle over Area 51. A couple of the missions are well-done tutorials on carrier takeoffs and landings.
#FSX ACCELERATION SIMULATOR#
Since Flight Simulator X doesn't support combat operations, the missions here are more varied and, in some cases, unusual. In most sims, the focus of missions involving an F/A-18 would involve finding bad guys and shooting them down. For a palpable thrill, set the weather to dark and stormy and clench your teeth as you come in out of the dark clouds in a storm, trying to find your carrier, find the twinkle of the lights emerging as you close in, line up with the carrier, bang your plane onto the moving deck, and then start breathing again as the wires catch and stop your plane. Acceleration provides a superb re-creation of carrier landings, complete with "calling the ball" and an on-deck flight officer talking you in. Easy enough, but as any naval flight sim fan can tell you, landing on the deck of a moving carrier is a nerve-racking experience in the best of conditions throw in bad weather and/or darkness and you'll be wiping the sweat off the keyboard. Taking off is a blast, literally: Gently taxi up to the catapult, lower and attach the launch bar, throttle up, and then fire the catapult and hang on as you're launched off the edge of the carrier. While there are, alas, no useable weapons on this simulated jet, it is fully capable of carrier operations, and most of the included missions involving the Hornet require both a takeoff and landing on a carrier. The Boeing F/A-18A Hornet is a fighter/attack jet with a breathtaking amount of power. The three new aircraft are very different from one another and provide fascinating new capabilities, introduced via the new missions. If you're a Flight Simulator X aficionado, this expansion pack is a must-have. Microsoft's new add-on, Flight Simulator X: Acceleration, adds more of what makes the sim great, offering three new aircraft, more than 30 new single-player missions, and 19 multiplayer missions/races. While you can compile a laundry list of features that make Flight Simulator X a jaw-dropping piece of software, it's the wide variety of aircraft and goal-oriented missions that create such a compelling experience for even the casual flight-sim fan.
