Exactly the same here I was watching that but sadly as far as I know nothing happens which takes out the realism.

What about the hundreds/thousands of ships and aircraft that go through the Triangle daily, and don't report a thing wrong?

Thats the spooky bit tho. It could be fine one day but the next it could be a blood bath.

After FS2000 was released, Microsoft had an FS community website. They did an 'Around The World Flight' on their forum, which included a leg through the Bermuda Triangle area. There were a few people who claimed to experience odd things while flying through the area, but the Flightsim Development team denied any such thing programmed into the flightsim.

In fs9, I took a flight throught the Bermuda Triangle once.  I felt an odd sensation in the seat of my pants.  And much to my suprise, my under shorts vanished.

I say, if you fly fs9 through the Bermuda Triangle, do it at your own risk!   :-/

I flew the Flight 19 route once...it was eerie.  Nothing went wrong, but the way the islands are its VERY easy to get confused and forget where you were headed, I had to look at the GPS a few times just to make sure I was where I thought I was.

I doubt it, theres no huge methane bubbles rising through the air in fs to kill your engines. :P

I forgot to mention, in FSX theres a mission that takes you out that way...when I got out there, I had an alternator failure in my lear and all my instruments failed.

Ok, if you look at all the ships/aircraft that disappeared in the triangle on a map very few are in the "triangle" itself ;) so in FS if you fly over the triangle most likely nothing odd will happen :P
