yes this is a game ;) it is a R/C plane flight simulator/trainer...as for as i can tell with the demo you are locked to one spot but have 360 degree's of view...these shots are one of the photoreal sceneries ;) I might have to pick this up when my taxes come in lol

I've had the Real-Flight G3 R/C Sim since it's first release. It's a great way to learn to fly R/C airplanes. It's also a lot harder to fly an airplane in then the Flight Sim. You really have to pay attention and stay with it. Touchy Touchy

The photo real scenery is not 3d, it is an image that is just a background.  That being said, they do make obstructions hard objects that will damage the plane.  A competing sim came to our airport and modelled it just like that.  They simply take a series of pictures and match them all into one continous image.  It takes a little more than that to import it into the simulator and model the ground and obstructions, but it looks amazing when its done.
