Description IFR
IFR is a flight simulator of the Cessna 172RG Cutlass light aircraft. Due to the limitations of computers in the early 1980s, it does not offer an external view of the cockpit, only an instrument panel (hence the name: Instrument Flight Rules) with a full set of gauges: altimeter, tachometer, artificial horizon, airspeed, rate of turn and rate of climb indicators. The aircraft is also equipped with flaps, retractable landing gear, LORAN-C inertial navigation system, ILS and ADF (which captures 4 beacons and 2 aerodromes on the map).
The objective is to navigate safely between 4 airfields located on the map, avoiding terrain obstacles, etc. and within the aircraft's fuel limit (~30 min); the game's flight model also includes stalls, wind and turbulence (difficulty level is adjustable).
