### 5/5 — Great

*2025-09-19, version 1.5.8*

Sad this is not more popular. Would be great(er) with map.

### 5/5 — Advancements for Modern Devices

*2025-05-17, version 1.5.8*

Would be amazing if the cloud render distance was updated for modern devices and if more advanced flying and physics could be added. Amazing game to practice theory for cross country.

### 4/5 — Good sim

*2023-02-28, version 1.5.8*

As a glider pilot in training seasonally ( nearly at solo) I think this is a very good app to practise your skill, however a note for the developer is on both paid versions stall speed is very low than the real glider and whenever you use the rudder once in the flight, it crashed your app and you have to restart the most perfect flight. But other than these I think it is a great sim to practise and prefect your skills from real life training. Above comments are just a few bugs but I’m sure they can be fixed easily enough,if not than can you please let me know any fixes for the rudder.

### 5/5 — Like A Mobile Version of Condor

*2021-12-29*

I fly in Condor on the PC, and this is pretty dang close for being a mobile sim.

Well done, sir, wonderful app!

### 4/5 — F-Schlepp fehlt

*2020-11-16*

Das Spiel an sich ist richtig cool aber es gibt drei Sachen die mich stören erstens das es kein F-Schlepp gibt zweitens das beim windenstart das Seil nicht reist drittens es gibt keine Updates mehr was ich sehr traurig finde aber sonst macht es richtig Spaß

### 1/5 — Schade

*2020-07-03*

Zwei Spieler haben die App für persönliche Fehden entdeckt. Bildschirm ist permanent rot. Spiel ist somit nicht zu empfehlen. 

Spiel sollte aus dem Store entfernt werden, da es nicht genutzt werden kann!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Bardzo realistyczna gra.

*2020-03-21, version 1.5.8*

Na IPadzie działa bezproblemowo. Namiastka prawdziwego szybownictwa.

### 5/5 — Gut

*2019-09-19*

Die Simulation macht mir sehr Spaß was aber fehlt sind mehr Flieger bzw. mehr als drei Maschinen währen super zb motorisierte Segelflieger oder als Schlepper es macht mir viel aus aber ärgerlich finde ich das ich zu Servern getan werde wo keine Piloten online sind.🙃

### 4/5 — Très bon simulateur ! 👍🏼

*2019-09-09*

Une superbe simulation: paysages et modèle de vol tres réalistes pour un jeu mobile ! On peut même à ma grande surprise faire du vol de pente ! 
Mais pour que ce simulateur soit parfait et pour que je puisse mettre la 5ème étoile, il manque quelques petites choses:

 - La possibilité de régler la météo (taille, Vz, fréquence des ascendances thermiques, force et direction du vent etc...). Bref, plus de réglages.

 - La possibilité de faire du vol d’onde. 

 - Des cartes un peu plus grandes (si possible), car on en fait vite le tour en cheminant correctement.

 - Pourquoi pas la possibilité de créer des circuits et de les faire avec des personnes que l’on pourrai inviter ?

 - Un parc de machine un peu plus consequent (Ventus, Nimbus, JS1, ASH, ASG, ASW...?).

 - Une ou deux carte(s) un peu plus montagneuse (Hautes-Alpes avec le massif des Ecrins, la Haute-Savoie avec le Mont-Blanc pourquoi pas ?). 

Bref, je critique pas mal ce qui pourrait être amélioré mais en tant que vélivole (dans la vraie vie), ce simulateur m’a permit de ma rappeler de bon moments passés en l’air dans des paysages magnifiques, et m’a aussi permit de retrouver quelques réflexes de vélivole ! 
Si je pouvais je mettrai 4,99 étoiles ! Beau boulot en tout cas !

### 1/5 — Was good but keeps disconnecting (hackers?)

*2018-11-05, version 1.5.8*

Best not go on-line as the chances are you will be disconnected just when you thought you were enjoying yourself. Fine off line though....and yes, I do have a reliable and fast connection with other on-line apps.
