### 4/5 — out of control

*2026-08-22, version 8.0*

always spinning out of control like it though

### 3/5 — Good game, BUT…

*2026-07-03, version 8.0*

I like the game.   Relatively realistic in terms of graphics, sink rates, flaps, landing gear and some responses. I also like the ability to try out ANY of the a/c simply by watching a couple of videos instead of having to purchase them.  However, there are a few features that could make the app even more enjoyable for the user:
1) There is an duel parallel runway airport in the “mountains” on the west side of the map that doesn’t allow the user to land at, regardless of how smooth and soft of a 3-point landing has been made.   If you can’t land there, then why is it even in the game?????
2) it would be useful to show measured units to destination.
It would also be useful for me to have. Flight track available for the user to look back on the ‘map’ to see flight pattern.
3) About half the time, after a successfully completed flight, with points/coins already added, the game erroneously flashes the message that me previous flight Crashed and am forced to watch yet another advertisement for games I’m not remotely interested in before proceeding.  This is when I typically leave Pilot and start playing Sudoko.

### 3/5 — Stupid ads!

*2026-04-25, version 8.0*

I keep getting this blackbird ad over and over the same ad for like 10 timesHELP!

### 3/5 — Bad Bug.Please Fix It!

*2026-04-10, version 8.0*

I like this games missions,and airplanes but I can’t choose the mission to play and every time it changes.I am super annoyed that there is a bug that would make you restart(,watch an add)and maybe even do it again and I am just not happy about it,please fix it so I could just enjoy the game but if it is still there I would be fine but Pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaase try to fix it,it would be so much better.

### 4/5 — Credit Glitch, ads, Ads and more ADS

*2026-03-16, version 8.0*

I added this game a short while ago and find it both fun and challenging. However, I’ve also found it very frustrating when I’ve completed a “flight” and landed successfully and “congratulated” only to be informed before starting another that I had Crashed during my previous flight, meaning that I had to watch another 3-4 ads,…. AGAIN!   This has happened REPEATEDLY and am now convinced that the real purpose is to force the user to watch their dam*d commercials again and again.   I Will NEVER download one of the apps that get forced upon me in this way!!!

Another hiccup was noted when I attempted to fly the ultralight a/c.  There ISN’T ANY ultralight a/c and it appears as nobody at the studio cares as my first mention of this faux pax happened quite some time ago.

### 4/5 — great game and a lot of planes…

*2026-03-08, version 8.0*

the game is great a with lots of cool planes, the graphics is cartoony but not realistic, like arcade, if you turn this to a realistic mode, 😁😁😁 it will be literally great!!! one problem is that there should be free camera so people are comfortable and free flight mode and like a plane creator like choose a plane model, colour, add decals and fly it for free!

in conclusion, alone the game is great and nothing to worry about just the upgrades i said please make them come true or edit it so the game will be great and can you edit a published game or can you unpublished it and edit it and publish it? anyway great game😊😎😃

This really SUCKS!

Another hiccup was noted when I attempted to fly the ultralight a/c.  There ISN’T ANY ultralight a/c.  Somebody at the studio forgot to put one in the game.

### 4/5 — There was bugs in the game

*2025-12-23, version 8.0*

Like if I make a game it like if when I started it, the airplane hit the ground and just said I crashed and make me crash out

### 3/5 — Some problems

*2025-09-29, version 8.0*

This game is pretty good and I think it’s a good alternative to sims like geoFS and RFS, but there’s a couple problems:
- I unlocked a new plane but when I spawned it in it was invisible
- Sometimes when you spawn you randomly crash?
Does anyone else have these issues?

### 3/5 — Good but….

*2025-07-22, version 8.0*

Too hard to control. Needs gyro steering

### 4/5 — Bug report!!!

*2024-03-09, version 8.0*

Can u fix: Big aircraft not showing Can u add: Should be less mountains Should be more terrain and more airports

### 1/5 — Play ptfs in roblox instead

*2023-08-27, version 8.0*

Whenever I spawn the plane it crashes could be better

### 3/5 — add an option for the 2d version

*2023-07-28, version 8.0*

the 3d update was cool and all but it just makes it a carbon copy of all your other games. the 2d version was what made this game unique from the rest of them and i think you guys should add a toggle to switch between the 2d and 3d versions of the game as the 2d version is so dearly missed i loved it so much.

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2023-04-15, version 8.0*

When I wach that the buy a plane I can’t see the plane

### 1/5 — Cant play

*2023-04-10, version 8.0*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-08-30, version 8.0*

Adverts constantly and lots of bugs

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-05-14, version 8.0*

It crashes horribly sooooooooooooooobad

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-02-14, version 8.0*

Couldn't even start up after 13 years. 
On a iPad 4

### 1/5 — Trouble with ads

*2025-09-11, version 8.0*

The ads will run, causing an error that your plane has crashed, which in turn runs more ads. 
I guess it’d be alright if you wanted to fork over the money, but to play the free version isn’t worth it. 
I’m deleting this one for the second time.

### 1/5 — всё платное

*2025-07-09, version 8.0*

всё платное

### 1/5 — the plane physics of the game was so bad that when I turn left or right it doesn’t get to be stabled

*2025-07-02, version 8.0*

Worst plane physics

### 1/5 — You need to fix your game

*2025-03-20, version 8.0*

You choose one of 2 planes (no problem, I understand having to unlock the rest) it forces you to watch an ad, and IMMEDIATELY after loading, it drops you from 5 feet and kills you so you have to do it all again. I’m 99% sure this game was made to force ads on people

### 1/5 — Same thing as airplane!2

*2024-12-26, version 8.0*

Check out my other review for airplane!2

### 1/5 — Won’t let me fly new planes

*2024-12-23, version 8.0*

When I bought a bigger plane I couldn’t see it and whenever I logged off I had to buy the plane again

### 1/5 — Absolutely terrible

*2024-07-24, version 8.0*

This game is absolutely horrible, I farmed for 2 whole days and when i bought i plane, when i flew it it wasn’t even showing. This game should be deleted

### 5/5 — I just like airplanes in general but also I love the huge menu of planes

*2024-06-30, version 8.0*

I like the game and in that in your huge menu of planes you don’t have to buy it with real money and you can just get in- game coins and also there is 1 huge bug in the menu where if you switch plane to plane back and forth very fast they go in another planes viewing spot and float and fly everywhere but I don’t want this to get removed a bit though.
