Manual

Emulation
Guides on emulating older games

"Fly! is a flight simulator released separately for both the Macintosh and Windows platforms, and simulates civilian airplanes and helicopters."

"New plane models and custom scenery can be added. Multiplayer is supported through the internet, with text chat or voice chat. Five main scenery areas are supplied: Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Dallas/Fort Worth. Flight briefing and flight planning are included and can use many of the supplied navaids. The following planes are included: Cessna 172, Piper Malibu, Piper Navajo Chieftain, Beech King Air B200, Hawker 800XP. Aircraft systems are accurately simulated, and require proper sequence of actions to, for instance start the engine. The 288 page manual covers all aspects of flying such as aerodynamic forces, navigation, weather and aircraft control." --MobyGames.com

FlightSim.com has many Fly! extras available.

Here are a couple of Mac add-ons that are becoming hard to find. Ground Control improves generic ground textures and adds night lights, and Sky! tweaks the sky appearance:

mrdav and Deckard, thanks for the reup.)

I have the scenery disc. I can upload it when I get the chance in the next couple of days.

by mrdav - 2014, December 30 - 10:06pm

I have it and will re-upload very soon.

EDIT: I have now re-uploaded the first two disc images originally provided by MCP. Unfortunately, my copy of the third disc (FLY_Scenery.sit) was an incomplete download so I cannot restore that.

Guys, where's the link to external storage?

Thanks for the game.

Not sure if this links works. ftp://ftp.infogrames.net/patches/fly2/Fly2_10.1patch.sit

please post what you have it might be the one.

I have an OSX patch, but I'm not sure what version it is. I'm planning on putting Fly! II on soon.

by MCP - 2011, March 27 - 11:28am

I believe the second version has been abandoned as well.

by IIGS_User - 2011, March 27 - 7:19am

I have Fly! II, but I don't know if it is abandonware. I'd be glad to put it on.

I think yes, it is abandoned, because (yet) you can get used copies only:

by unixphreak - 2011, March 27 - 2:20am

do you have the last patch for fly II? version 2.50.240

by hunter13 - 2011, March 27 - 12:24am

I have Fly! II, but I don't know if it is abandonware. I'd be glad to put it on.

by MCP - 2011, March 26 - 3:17pm

Thanks for the links Deckard; I've added them to the description. I'll let you in on a little secret if you promise not to tell anyone. You're a replicant!!

There are a couple of essential patches for this, Fly 1.0.1 Updater and Ground Control Macintosh Version 1.1. The updater fixes the bugginess of the initial release and must be run on a factory fresh install, i.e. before you run Fly!. Ground Control replaces the generic scenery with much better textures. Both are available at http://fly.simvol.org/articles/macs/pagesus/fly1-1us.php

There are also more add-ons for Fly! and Fly! II here: http://www.flightsim.com/file.php?cm=INDEXCALL&sPos=250

I'm uploading this to Mediafire right now... Those aren't the most exciting of screenshots, but it's hard to get them from this game, and MobyGames doesn't have any either.

UPDATE: I've finished uploading and made an external download link available.
