The player must follow the red and green markers that indicates the proper flight path during each landing and takeoff phase.
The player is required to follow every step including communication with the co-pilot and the tower by pressing the Speak Button.
There is a small LCD monitor above the yoke that has 4 configuration displays, including horizon indicators, engine operation, airspeed, and altitude.
Erratic flying, such as "High Speed Bank", "Inclination Too Great", "Stall", and "Verification Ignored" can cost players points.
The control tower and flight attendant also are briefly heard from at the beginning of the takeoff phase.
The ground proximity warning system and realistic cockpit alarm sounds are also heard frequently.
