Gleim X-Plane Flight Training Course now Compatible with X-Plane 11

News > Gleim X-Plane Flight Training Course now Compatible with X-Plane 11

Gleim is thrilled to announce that our X-Plane Flight Training Course is now compatible with X-Plane 11! This newest version of X-Plane adopts a modernized physics-based rendering engine allowing for change in illumination and reflections depending on your viewing angle and the properties of the object’s surface. X-Plane 11 also features a state-of-the-art sound engine capable of realizing spatially-accurate 3D surround sound. The aircraft selection has been overhauled to take advantage of these features in order to recreate stunning, fully functional 3D cockpits.

While we encourage our customers to use the newest version of X-Plane for a more captivating simulator experience, we want to remind you that migrating your Gleim X-Plane Flight Training Course progress from X-Plane 10 to X-Plane 11 is a permanent action that cannot be undone. For this reason, we advise you to review the recommended system requirements to ensure your system can run the software before purchasing or migrating your course progress to X-Plane 11. You can review the system requirements on the X-Plane 11 product page.

XFTC 11 set

If your system specifications are on the borderline of the minimum requirements, we recommend test-flying the X-Plane 11 demo. The demo will allow you to try out all the features of X-Plane 11 within a limited geographic area and adjust the settings to ensure you’ll have an amazing experience.

If you install the demo version of X-Plane 11 and run the Gleim X-Plane Flight Training Course, you may be prompted to migrate your course progress to the new version. Do NOT migrate until you’ve seen X-Plane 11 in action, have the full version installed, and know your computer can support the program.

Gleim Virtual Cockpit™

If you don’t have a computer capable of running X-Plane 11, consider upgrading to the Gleim Virtual Cockpit Ultimate Set which includes a powerful computer system that exceeds the recommended specifications for X-Plane 11 and also comes with state-of-the-art hardware, flight controls, and (3) 27″ monitors to create an immersive flight simulator experience!
