'''FlightProSim''' is "One of the Most Realistic Flight Sims Available", according to its website. It is a commercial copy of [[FlightGear]] so the FlightGear developers are very happy with this compliment. FlightProSim however, is in no way (officially) related to FlightGear, apart from the fact that the first is 99% (if not more) a copy of the later.
