FlightGear graphics are outdated in many respects compared to flight simulators such as ''[[Microsoft Flight Simulator]]'' of the same period, but can compare well to older versions. Also, the whole world is well represented using the freely available [[Shuttle Radar Topography Mission|SRTM]] elevation data, and a number of special features are available, such as sloped runways. Over 20,000 runways, 3d clouds, multi-platform support, multiple open FDM choices, roughly 100 aircraft choices by version 0.9.10 provide a well-rounded feature set.
