requirements are covered here. The tutorials are written assuming that you have read the

Use the aircraft suggested with each tutorial, or load your favorite. Use whatever aircraft you
like so long as it is capable of climbing to the filed cruise altitudes for each flight. In other
words, you can use the FS B737 in all samples if you wish.
