If the vacuum system fails, the HSI gyros spin down slowly with a corresponding degradation in response as well as a slowly increasing bias/error. Instruments and system failures are also accurately recreated.
Instruments that lag in real life, lag correctly in this simulator, gyro drift is modeled correctly, the magnetic compass is subject to aircraft body forces.
Realistically models real-world instrument behavior. Directional airport lighting that smoothly changes intensity as your relative view direction changes.
