Show HN: I made a flight simulator, except you're just a passenger(inflightsimulator.com)
Buckle your seatbelt, secure your tray table, and open your window shade. Now you can simulate flying anywhere in the world as a commercial passenger, from takeoff to touchdown. Terrain, weather, and realtime sun position included. Don't worry, the latest release now features legs, so you can get up and go to the bathroom on longer flights. Enjoy!

I was hoping for a very detailed menu with more flight avionics in the in flight entertainment screen but I guess the speed and altitude in the HUD is all I get. I want to know the exact plane T am flying in

Can't press the Continue button, because the footer overlaps it. Firefox on mobile.

Genius doesn’t always look like you expect it will. Well done!

(Kill the login panel though —- it wouldn’t go away for me)

It's very nicely done. I snapped the seatbelt on and that dread of a long boring flight automatically hit me. :)

Ah, it's flying Paris to Bogota in a 1 aisle, 4 seats per rank regional plane, pretty unusual if you ask me :)

A pirate website disguised as flight simulator? What a madman!

Pirate websites evading detection by using disguises is real. There's one out there in a totalitarian country that pretends to be a parked domain.
