### 2/5 — Great idea but way too fast

*2026-07-24, version 5.0.1*

There should be different speed controls. This is just silly without speed options

### 4/5 — Thanks for brining it back!

*2026-07-07, version 5.0.0*

I’ve missed Flight Control, I’m not sure if devs bought the IP or it’s just a spiritual successor - thank you for bringing the game back with your own twist and ideas.

The game is great.

The only problem I have is when Ads play there UI elements to close the app and return to the game are too small that it doesn’t register my tapping.

### 3/5 — Why is the tornado in the runway?

*2026-05-14, version 4.2.301*

I do love this game, but ads and the tornado was in the runway and I tell the plane to go. It goes a different way even when I’m not doing anything to tell it to move a different way.

### 3/5 — Pretty hard

*2026-05-02, version 4.2.301*

It’s pretty hard at first but now it’s easy

### 4/5 — Multiplayer

*2026-03-14, version 4.2.301*

Great game from 3GS days. Nice enhancements from that but grabbed this in the hopes to play with my partner. Any chance of re introducing the multiplayer aspect of the game?

### 3/5 — Way too hard!

*2026-02-17, version 4.2.301*

I like this game a lot. But Even on easy mode it is EXTREMELY hard. Too many plans or flocks of birds come in and it’s easy to loose track of them all. I wish easy mode was actually easy and we had a bit more room on the map

### 3/5 — Fun, but could be better

*2026-02-11, version 4.2.301*

An option to zoom out and have more space for menus would be great

### 5/5 — Un digne successeur de flight control

*2026-02-03, version 4.2.301*

Excellent une seule critique un avion avec mitrailleuse me détruit un jet qui a lancé 2 missiles en face à face 😅😂🤣 merci au développeur l’ensemble de scénarios offre une durée de jeu importante pour un prix modique MERCI

### 5/5 — Game

*2026-01-30, version 4.2.301*

Love this game

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2026-01-13, version 4.2.301*

I think this is just a 2D ripoff of Airport Madness and you gat pretty board of it really quickly. There is too much planes and no levels. You also only have 1 island and the volcano and crashes ruin everything.

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2026-01-10, version 4.2.301*

Every time I go home I play this game 🛩️✈️🙂

### 5/5 — Best out there!

*2026-01-06, version 4.2.301*

Fun. Free. Can’t beat it!

### 3/5 — Record scores don’t update

*2026-01-03, version 4.2.301*

I had two much higher scores and when I come back to the game the record doesn’t update or save those game scores.

### 5/5 — Du bonheur….

*2025-12-31, version 4.2.301*

Pas de pubs, et de nombreux tableaux addictifs…
Merci et bravo aux développeurs.
👏👏😎👍

### 4/5 — Fun and addicting… too many ads

*2025-12-24, version 4.2.301*

This would easily be my favorite game app if it weren’t for the frequent ads that are almost impossible to exit. The actual gameplay is fun and challenging. If it weren’t for the ads, I would’ve given it five stars.

### 5/5 — Just a Little Suggestion

*2025-12-22, version 4.2.301*

The game is amazing, but there is one thing that I want the most in this game. Custom levels. If it’s a lot of hard work, you don’t have to, again, it’s just a suggestion.

### 1/5 — Super jeu, au tout début, il s’appelait flight Control

*2026-05-23, version 4.2.301*

C’était un super jeu, il s’appelait flight Control depuis qu’il s’appelle plan de contrôle. Le jeu est très bien mais c’est bourré de pub et je ne sais pas comment les enlever. Je n’ai pas trouvé la version payante.

### 1/5 — Happy days

*2026-04-18, version 4.2.301*

IAP brainrot kills another good game

### 1/5 — Error

*2025-12-11, version 4.2.301*

I got stuck on loading screen

### 1/5 — Was soll das

*2025-09-04, version 4.2.301*

Konnte nur einmal spielen, dann kam Werbung und die ging nicht wieder weg. Meine Zeit ist zu kostbar für so ein Kindergarten

### 1/5 — Meh

*2025-09-04, version 4.2.301*

Not that well thought out

### 1/5 — Freezes

*2025-03-06, version 4.2.2*

Freezes on iphone15 pro max

### 1/5 — Progress doesn’t save

*2025-01-01, version 4.2.2*

Fix your game

### 1/5 — Seriously?

*2024-12-28, version 4.2.2*

I’m not sure where all the 5 star reviews are coming from. A complete waste of time

### 1/5 — Too many loooong ads.

*2024-10-22, version 4.2.2*

It fun and entertaining and it is very good

### 5/5 — A good yam

This is a good game to relax your brain

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2026-07-18, version 5.0.0*

Love this game, can get hard when there are no planes then it spawns 5,6,7 ( haha 67, SHUT UP) but other than that perfect

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-08, version 5.0.0*

I love fun!

### 5/5 — Oogabooga

*2026-06-16, version 4.2.301*

Airplanes

### 5/5 — Amazing, addictive game!

*2026-06-04, version 4.2.301*

I’ve unlocked the entire series and absolutely love this game. Some levels are more challenging to get into a rhythm than others, but some levels I could probably play hours for if I could keep focused that long.

I don’t know how easier or difficult this would be to implement, but if there was a way to have time dilation option of 1.5 speed, that would be appreciated .

Sometimes, 1 feels too slow, but 2is just too frenetic.

I’m also grateful for the option of a one time purchase to remove ads. I did this very quickly, and appreciate a one time purchase rather than a subscription.

### 5/5 — Entretenido

*2026-05-15, version 4.2.301*

Bueno

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2026-04-26, version 4.2.301*

Every time I go home I play this game 🛩️✈️🙂❤️

### 5/5 — J’adore !

*2026-04-02, version 4.2.301*

Je joue à ce jeu depuis des années. J’adore !!! Bravo aux auteurs et autrices de ce jeu !

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-02-22, version 4.2.301*

When I’m older I want to be a air traffic controller this game is perfect for practice
