A great site
March 7, 2018

I am thankful to have a site like"Fly Away" there are so few sites that are dedicated to FlightSims. I have flown all my life started at seven and now am seventy eight. "I stil love it, although most of my flying is Sim Flying"."Fly Away", gathers from many sources, I have just found "Lovell Field". It's my home city of Chattanooga. Was elated to find it, along with other files here on Fly Away Simulation.

My version of FSX/Steam performs just about the same as my stand-alone of FSX-10. The biggest difference is many times when I click on the icon to load FSX/Steam, there is an update that starts first and takes a minute or so. Sometimes, after the update, the startup does not continue. Sometimes it takes several attempts afte the update to run FSX/Steam. Other than this glitch, it's fine.

Signed up with Fly Away Simulation last month, have really been enjoying my membership. Have downloaded lots of different aircraft for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and most of them install with ease.

Great work Fly Away Simulation!

I depend on this site for addons for fsx steam and so far i have been very happy with the selection. It is my go-to site when I'm looking to mix up my aircraft selection or add scenery to my favorite airports. I'm very happy with flyawaysimulation.com

I am an inveterate 'fiddler' - that is, I love trying out new planes, new scenery, new utlities etc... in my P3D setup.

This site is a brilliant one stop shop for this sort of free stuff that I can play about with - for example, I just downloaded the free Egypt scenery and am planning a sightseeing flight over Pyramids and the other monuments along The Nile.

Have been a member of Fly Away Simulation for many years (PRO membership) and love every minute spent on the site. I signed up for PRO so that I could gain fast access to the downloads section. I'm a heavy downloader and love all of the FSX aircraft I can get there. Highly recommended.

Often we blame others, software creators and/or distributers for problems we may encounter with downloaded items.
With the assistance of broadbase forums available on this site, I've found that the majority of issues have been due to my ineptness with the computer, and I've been able to find the remedy from very knowledgeable and helpful fellow PC Pilots.

If you can't find an addon you like ( which if you can't that means you don't know what you are looking for.) or you don't which category it would fall under than just ask the support team at FAS and they will help you. They won't treat you like you're stupid for not knowing.

Flyawaysimulation review

I'm an FSX Acceleration user on an old windows 7 Pc. Love this site for the freeware add ons both planes and scenery. Some of my favourites … Concorde, Pompei, Paris scenery, dolomites scenery, LHR T5, Thunderbird 2 including mole haha and even a space 1999 Eagle. ( showing my age now) I've managed to get most things to work in FSX. Just remember to keep preview directX 10turned off in settings … display… graphics otherwise you can lose some plane textures and end up with albino looking planes!

Best Selection
May 3, 2017

I've purchased three aircraft and two scenery mod's, all downloaded with no issues. I surf around a lot of sim sites but always come back to Fly Away Simulation when I'm ready to buy.

I have been flying on this sight for more than 12 years and still enjoy it. One can never find this boring, so many different aircraft, airports and places to fly to. Keep up the good work.

Good balance
June 9, 2019

Good balance regarding cost and quality. Besides that, easy installation and reasonable frame speed results in a desirable product

They have problems with airplane gauges A320-211-GJVB-CFM, like they don't light or function. I did the correct instalation, it still they didn't work.
