  • Wrong music.

  • HOLY MOTHER OF GRAPHICS!

  • what is the song?

  • This airport doesn't exist anymore, as far as i know. I's a park now. What was the airport called?

  • @Sebrav Meigs Field (KCGX)

  • @claudp Thank you so much! I used to play this game all the time. I flew an Extra 300 most of the time, and almost always took off from this airport. Thanks for letting me re-live some memories. :)

  • @Sebrav Meigs Field. It was the default airport.. The airport was dug up overnight if I recall correctly.

  • The memories.

  • HEAVEN EXISTS ! YEEEESSS!!!!

  • more 3D objects than in FSX

  • ahh music remind me gold moments

  • it was pure heaven...

    Who says that this sucks..Is a dork..Realize that this was cutting edge back then. You AHOLE.

  • hahaha I remember playing this when I was a kid!! I loved it!! on it every time I got! :D

  • Screw FSX, 98 FTW

  • ...as real as it gets :D

  • I thought this was x-plane 10. lol

  • Compare This Game With FSX xD

  • The music of fsx.

  • This is a actual x-plane 7

  • i know how to take off and how to drive plane but i dont know how to locate where landing site is,there is no radar that shows where is airstrip.

    even when my co-pilot set auto pilot i allways miss airstrip.cant locate it XD,can anybody help??btw i like old games

  • @Toni112007

    This version had no GPS like FSX, but it has a map...

  • No VC? xD

  • @elet1988

    The VC in FS98 was very buggy and crashed nearly every PC...but the 2D Cockpit was enough back then.

    Good times.

  • and then our kids will laugh at fsx when they see it...

  • runs better than fsx

  • @therockchannel100

    Ms fired half of the FS Team after FS2004, FS9 and FSX are the last products they made.

    FSX is very buggy, but very easy to fly for starters...

    And Flightgear or X-Plane are better, if you want a good flight experience, without bugs!

  • Comment removed

  • I was amazed by the "realism" back in the days.....

    lol

  • I thought it was "Megis" until 2003.

  • IS that Meigs?

  • this has been the starting airport since fs1

  • i was only 5 years old when i started playing this, nearly 13 years later, still a die hard FS fan xD

  • auf was für ein flughafen bisst du ich starte immer auf dem flach land

  • @viediowelten Chicago Meigs Field (now abandonned, Stillgelegt). Chicago is in the United States, state of Illinois, nicknamed "Windy City".

  • I still have this game...it works on Vista - or so it did....(HDD Failure)

  • While every kid was playing on their Play Stations, Game Cube, N64, etc more often, I was playing FS 98. Don't get me wrong I like playing Modern Warfare or NBA 2K nowadays, but the Microsoft Flight Simulator is the best!

  • Comment removed

  • in 1998: OMG THIS GAME IS EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

    in 2000:OMG FS2000 is EPIC! fs98 is ok

  • my fps on that game are amazing

  • My computers to new so I can't load the ground.

  • Remembered playing this when I was like 10...I'm going to cry! :P

  • OMG This was sooo popular!

  • That was my first flight simulator , I remember I was like 5 or 6 years old when I played it :)

  • @tuniturntablist Hahaha same for me I remember thinking that the Extra 300S was a WWII aircraft (idk why ^^) and I felt soooo beast just landing the Learjet 45 :P Back in teh old days...

  • if you cant run this in ultra high you fail.

  • Nice graphics :P :)

  • I lol'ed when I opened the video and it was FSX music with FS98 gameplay xD

  • THIS MUST NEED A SUPER COMPUTER!

  • Airport: Merrill C Meigs

    Aircraft: Boeing 737-800

    Game: Flight Simulator 98

    Year: WHAT MATTER?

  • good graphics

  • Not bad for a 98 game.

  • the good old days of flight simulater

  • @Boltboxer Can you belive the slogan was ''as real as it gets''

  • @tealmarlin and now there is i7 prossecors, 4.0 Ghz Computers and with Microsoft Flight coming out, it will look amazing

  • this game is old

    i dont mean to ofend anybody

  • Is someone can give me the link for download this game? i love classic MFL

  • ITS THAT AIRPORT MEIGS FIELD

  • Oh my God this was so awesome back then :D

  • @KobraSahin First, you accuse 9/11 of being an inside job, why is there no proof and if there is... please fill me in. Next, you say that weve killed 1.1 million civis in iraq, there are about 30 mil people in iraq, so what youre trying to say is that 1-30 of the population was wiped out without notice, hmm? i could use some sources on that too. Until i do get some sources ill continue to believe that youre a brainwashed extremist fucking lunatic.

  • @KobraSahin not sure what youre getting at here, but what i do notice is that you are infering that the death of 3,000 innocent people was "amazing" there for you are a low life scumbag without morals that should burn in hell, i pity your brainwashed soul for im assuming youve been led to believe that taking others down with you is the way to go, and that that is how you get your way.

  • @KobraSahin not fucking cool

  • isn't this the official FSX music? :D I love this piece

  • how did you recorde this

  • I remember seeing this game for the first time when I was 9 ... I shit my pants! I couldn't believe how awesome the graphics were! :D

  • This game is now in the shop for only 0,01 $ ! buy it now

  • the memorys. the friggin memorys!!!

  • damn I remember playing this when I was 4 a little after it came out and I loved it but then in 2004 when my teacher gave me fs2004 for this and then I was like WHOA!!! then I started downloading and then bought fsx and was like HOLY S***!!!!

  • What Map Is This

  • How do You See Your Plane from The Outside Like That? I just got the game and trying to learn how to play. please respond.

  • @simsguy1998 Stuck in a time warp? Get with the times... FSX

  • @Steve181

    I cant. I don't have enough money to buy it.

  • flight simulator 98 is like google earth flight simulator right?no offense

  • fs95 and 98 are petty much the same but 98 has more buildings and it has boats and a little better quality at some points and fs98 also has more planes than fs95 does.

  • @tolli97 You are partly wrong.

    While FS98 has more planes, there is no difference between the dynamic scenery (boats) and number of buildings.

  • i love this game

  • If you were a real pilot you would of been fired. You were flying in A Class. Way to close to the buildings.

  • i dont feel right if im not in a virtual cockpit

  • I guessing you needed the best PC at the time to play it at ultra high?

  • man I remember playing this when I was like 4.

  • when you compare that quality with fsx, its quite amazing that they actually got the planes to fly (olso there was a bit of a glitch when the view chaned).

    the cockpit looks different from fsx too

  • man the graphics sucks! i can see a huge improvement between fsx and that! great job microsoft :]

  • lol I remember going over to my friends house and playing this, now I look at it after playing FSX for 2 years, I am just like... wow. and lmao at the virtual cockpit and the gear just dissapearing into the body.

  • Its amazing how far FS has come. It just brings back so many good memories. Aviation flat out rules!

  • Please FS9 or FSX

  • @MusicLover11325 it's just 1 of very few vids so who cares. and it shows how far fs has come.

  • @yoyoyoyoshua This is actually FS95?

  • @MusicLover11325 no it's fs98.

  • LOL, i played this game when i was like 6, its a 1 runway airport, i remember it so well :D

  • the last time i played this version was in 2005. then i got the newer versions.

  • Crap compared to FSX MF is coming out asswekl

  • old

  • what was the first FLight simulator?

    I think FS 95

  • i remember this :D

  • I love this game even though i have FSX

  • @ned987 i have fs98. 200, 2002, 2004(which is missing the 4th disc, so i cant complete the installation), X, and cfs2.

  • WOW I can't get this frames and this scenery on the FSX now xD

  • i remember this.

  • flight simulator '85 was the first one!

  • nice song

  • Still remember when this was the leading edge of Flight Simulation :P

  • omg i remember the good old times with fs98 :)

  • after all of todays addons like REX and Level-D 767, i dont not think anyone will be able to go back and play FS98, unless if its just for fun.

  • do you have to have a remote control to play this game?

  • i remberplaying this na fs9 is soo much better

  • omg the graphics on the jet engines are so good 0:27 - YE RIGHT FSX kicks this games ass

  • high quality much

  • I should install this now and get like a billion FPS.

  • I remember this game.

    It reminds me when i was 4 and i was playing it :)

  • FS 98...as real as it gets...

  • omg they made chicago in FS2002 crappy because there is no chicago river and it isn't "satelite photo" and even the ground in FS98 is better.

  • why did you use the FSX music ?

  • thanks for the post! brought back old memories!

  • multiple crashes, 1:06 and 0:28 !

  • i really miss this cockpit :'( the new ones aren't this nice!

  • I used to think this was cool. Now I have FSX! What a difference! In 98, all the clouds were just blocks. In X, they look so realistic! Everything else has changed so much too!

  • I cannot get my planes to take off no matter how much time I spend to adjust the settings but I sure love this music!

    I hope at least you flight sim fans are having fun since no one else has spinning airplane trouble.

  • The gear just dissapears, nice video, I have the disc somewhere in my house :D

  • Wow look at those wheels!

  • @SuperBen316 Nah, it wasn't. There are older games in the series!

  • @Willy105 FS1 during the early 1980s?

  • @Mridrislozada Late 80s I believe.

  • @SuperBen316 look FS up in wikipedia!

  • @SuperBen316 you're wrong the first flight simulator game was created in 1980 I think the name of the game was... "flight simulator FPS" or something like that I don't remember too much

  • @SuperBen316 before we had: Flight simulator 95 and 3, 2..............

  • @SuperBen316 The first one was msfs1.0 i would be stunned if that was the first one in the 80's!

  • anyway this is better than fsx...serious..

  • I rely on Auto Pilot too much with this, can't climb high enough without stalling it or not being able to level it out! It was well worth the 50p at the charity shop!

  • haha even gta sana andreas has better graphics

  • @NOG1997 much beeter

  • @NOG1997 Because GTA SA came out 6 whooping years after this. Your brain is cool.

  • oh wow. fs98.... when was the last time anyone actually uploaded a video on this????

  • where did you download the game?

  • @farisksah I bought it at a store. Downloading games without buying them is illegal.

  • @Willy105 How did you make FS98 usable for XP?

  • @Willy105 so doesn't stop a whole lot of ppl.

  • @Willy105 Can u please tell me were u bought this game please?

  • @Willy105 Steam? XD

  • @Willy105

    :O

  • @farisksah apa laa hang ni....hang tau x haram.....

  • i am THE BEST PROFESSIONAL! i have spent 10 years playing FS i started of with this one and i have all the editions now ive got deluxe edition ..i love FS (L)

  • This is Flight Simulator 1998 not Flight Simulator X. Pretty good recording for an old simulator.

  • what planes that

  • @sporefanatic007 I'm guessing the Boeing 737-200.

  • @Guywhowearsunderwear Actually it's a 737-400. The only visible exterior difference of the 737-200 compared to the 737-400 is that has a winglet. In this video you see that plane doesn't have one.

  • it looks like their is a mid air collision like seven times.

  • lol i played this game some couple of years ago, but if I play fs 2004 now i imagine how hard this game fails xD

  • i remember taking off and landing in this plane when i was 5 years old in the same game. wow i was soo excited when i was 5 that i was able to land a plane and not crash it.

  • had this game bot a joystick 7 years later. on that day my dad came to pick me up. i tore open the joystick plugged it in, randomly selected an airport, and was excited to use a joystick 4 the 1st time ever. turns out, the random airport i'd selected was a helipad on top of a building. i was in a 747.

  • How high geometric and effects level! :p

  • Thanks for adding the fantastic music..

  • aiuto che burda la grafica

  • graphics are terrible compared to FSX
