...and then they sort of ignored them, I suppose not PC.
You have to enable visual damage
visual_damage=1
and then drive up to a tree or something in slew mode, release, and catch it in slew again. before it terminates.
You really have to try quite hard to get the crash damage, the Ford Trimotor can be quite satisfying, loses whole engines!
I suppose once you've done that, then you never go back and do it again...unless there's a screenshot contest allowing only stock planes!

OK I did that cup exam thing and all, and the next thing - out of NOWHERE - there's this Gulfstream!

The Baron 58 is the spiffed-up version of a time-tested favorite, made more modern by its new Continental Special engines. The Baron combines the attractiveness of Beechcraft design with the reliability of twin engines, resulting in a gorgeous workhorse of an aircraft."


Happy crashing...

Now Ms Simpson, look over there on the console, the right hand lever that says Park Brake, pull out, no! do that before you push that other one that says Throttle - quickly now...



Any accusations of sexism can quickly be settled by flying the default Mooney, which indeed has a female pilot, front left winkyy.gif

No need - there's another wonderful Microsoft product that can simulate this for you, any time you want!
Windows Vista it's called, and was quite common until recently.
I have a spare copy if anyone would like to have a go...
