Is it, or isn't it......hmm

I have a question which a lot of people probably have on their minds, is the Bermuda Triangle included in FS9--as in if I were to fly over it would I crash ??? Thanks

I doubt it is, it's not in the USA so M$ probably didn't think twice about not including it.  Anyway, it would get annoying if you crashed after a 13 hour long haul flight just becuase you flew in the wrong area.

One tip of the triangle does touch the US in Florida.Image
As far as being in the game, that would be cool.

Yeah, and I have crashed in FS9 flying over New Jersey swampland! ;D

Is this the Piscataway Triangle? :o ;)
Home airports are KMGJ and KSWF in Orange County, NY
Stop by and say hello. :)

It's there but Microsoft made the usual mistake and it's not where it is supposed to be. I find it all over the place. You'll be flying along and suddenly you are staring at your desktop. That's Microsoft's version of the Bermuda Triangle.  ;D ;D

;D

"Triangle? We don't need no stinking triangle!"

At least I don't I'll crash in any geometric shape! ;D ;D
Crop circle? I'm there ;)

I don't think anyone knows exactly where the Triangle is, it seems that it gets larger every year or so.

I suppose you could crash there if you tried hard enough e.g. insufficient fuel, flying nose down etc ;D

It'd be fun to put one of the available UFO add-ons in as some AI traffic flying weird timed routes that run from Fla to Bermuda to Puerto Rico and so on.

Yes, it gets beggier or smaller to explain any mysterious happenings in the general area.

Hahaha! So true! I always see that when I'm northeast of Anchorage (where there's 500 little airports packed in a 50  mile area), one look at my GPS and BOOM! back to desktop.
