Condor is great, although it looks a bit dated...

The graphics are dated but this Sim has the best FM ever made on any Simulator for the public.

Many real pilot use it and i'm one of them ;)

A friend of mine who is a gliderpilot, only says very good things of this simulator.

I fly Condor fairly frequently... it's very very well constructed. It's not particularly beautiful, but the visuals are adequate, and what really matters-- flight modeling-- is perfect.

It's really pleasure to fly Condor. But IMHO you have to be real soaring fan to play Condor all the time, as far it's not so eventful as combat sim or FS.

Yes the graphics are a little outdated but competition tasks are joy to fly. Online competition is what makes condor a real pleasure...

good thermal!!!!!

[empeck]

This scenery is jaw dropping.

 

[effte]

It's a good one.

 

Only thing I really can't stand about it is that it makes me long for gliding again. I dropped the license and only fly powered these days...

W0W! Those alps look amazing, thats for sure.

Anyways, any of you has an idea if they use motor powered gliders?

ahh if sims could capture gs and the effects of spacial disorientation; I tock a ride on a cessna two weeks ago and now I can't look at my sims with the same eyes :cry: we did a couple of 60 degree turns and the gs (only 2 gs) felt like crazy; now imaging pulling such a move on a real glider!

[effte]

Or five Gs... :D

 

FWIW, I find spatial disorientation a very small problem IRL, compared to simulators with all the imposed limits on perception.

Nice video:
