### 4/5 — Finally but still bugs

*2023-11-18*

Finally after 4 months I think dynamic lights are back on older devices but there is still problems so the problem is that there is no small airport stuffs like the pushback truck or other stuffs need to be fix

### 5/5 — A good game

*2023-11-03*

It’s really awesome I definitely recommend it anybody should get it and cam there are packages of planes to buy but otherwise you get a lot of starter planes I bought the Concorde pack but my device ran out of storage and couldn’t contain the updates anymore so I had to stop playing it I tried a lot to get it back but I couldn’t so it’s a great game I would really want to see pushback or traffic control a radio system would be cool so what are you waiting for get this game it’s awesome it’s very realistic as well

### 3/5 — New update.

*2023-09-23*

Great sim but I contacted support about an issue about 5 months ago. They found the the issue but never fixed it or made an update. The issue was when they updated the major update some of the camera angles were gone but you can still use them if you are in them on a did aircraft, also with the helicopters, the throttle returns back to the original position when you keep finger on the control. Also you can not use the rudder and the throttle at the same time or it will glitch or the rudder will go back to the neutral position. Also when changing the camera position the camera menu take up the whole screen while continuing flying. Love the app I get it every year but the new update has made things go to crap.

### 3/5 — Not an improvement

*2023-09-02*

Definitely not an improvement. It’s sadly a small step back from the 2022 version. It is still better than anything else out there at the moment but it isn’t as good as the 2022 version. It is essentially the same game except you have to buy most of the planes and the scenery packages all over again. If the lightning is your favorite plane, you might be disappointed to learn that not only do you have to buy the plane, you only get to sit in the back seat now. 

Although this still qualifies as arguably the second best flight simulator out there, if you have the 2022 version, do not waste your money on this version. It is surprisingly mediocre.

### 4/5 — DualRatedPilot

*2023-08-30*

The issues I’ve found thus far-

1. The viewpoint center on the Blackhawk is way aft of the aircraft.

2. The nose wheel steering violently oscillates side-to-side on the MB-339 while decelerating through 30 knots.

3. The view controls used to be easier to select with the right thumb while flying, now they’re located in the middle of the screen making it more difficult. 

4. The playback controls used to be semi-transparent, now they take up a lot of space on the lower part of the screen. 

5. You have to apply full braking first and then back-off to the desired amount on the MB-339, anything less and it will just return to zero braking. 

6. The cockpit view of the MB-339 is now in the rear seat position making it impossible to watch the flight instruments while flying. 

7. The collective control on the R22 sticks and sometimes reverses. 

Most of these problems seem to have come from a recent update, so hopefully they will be fixed. However, I believe that any fixes will probably only be on the next version, so buy that one as the game is definitely worth the money but needs some improvements.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2023-08-22*

I love the detail they put into all the aircraft, I haven’t had any issues so far, just I wish they put the price off all the in app purchases in the price of the app itself, and I’m excited for 2024 when hopefully the 737ng and max come out

### 4/5 — Aircraft Log books

*2023-08-21*

So this is a really great game and the new maps are really cool.  Good to see some new maps as well as maps and 3d terrain that were in previous versions but had been dropped.   The issue I have with this version is — before I downloaded any planes or maps I spent a few days just flying the Blackhawk helicopter.  I’ll just say I have a personal connection to that bird and was keeping track of my stats in the log book.   After downloading all the planes and maps I discovered that not only was the Blackhawk now gone from the log books but there are 3 other aircraft missing from it as well.   I messaged the developer about a month ago but didn’t get much of a response.   The only other thing is that a few days a go is get a few minuets into a flight and the sim would crash (shut down - if I’m using the word “crash” correctly here).  Restarting my device didn’t help so I deleted the app and reinstalled everything.   I’ve only had time to do a couple short flights and didn’t have any issues there but now all my career info is gone again.

### 5/5 — Best mobile flight simulator

*2023-08-18*

The simulator loads really fast. However I would suggest being able to play online with friends and possibly even in the same plane. I also wish there were aircraft carriers that you can land on. Still a amazing flight simulator because everything in the cockpit of every plane works. I am looking forward to the 2024 version.

### 4/5 — Very nice flight sim, with a couple issues with latest update

*2023-08-18*

The 9 squares in the upper right hand corner have disappeared and I have now way of pausing or taking advantage of the new fast forward features.  Any guidance?  I’ve deleted and reinstalled, lot all my history and still doesn’t work.

### 3/5 — Sound

*2023-07-23*

The game is good, however my problem is the sound. When I spawn in a plane there’s no sound.. I restart the game like 10 times just to get the sound back, or sometimes it doesn’t even come back. Please fix this because I know it’s not my volume that’s the problem.
