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. Pilot Timzo ### 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 ### 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 ! ### 4/5 — 曳航 *2017-12-22* ウィンチ曳航方式だけでなく航空機曳航方式も選択できればもっといいと思います。 アプデに期待します ### 4/5 — Sympa *2016-10-08* Thermiques et performances très optimistes, ce qui en fait un jeu sympa avec des réflexes vélivoles. Il manquera une carte pour naviguer en circuit fermé et des unités métriques, plus courantes dans le vol à voile. ### 4/5 — Quite Realistic *2016-04-06, version 1.5.8* Now that I have got the hang of things, it flies pretty much like a real glider, soaring amongst the clouds is great fun, highest I have been is 6000 feet but it's good that the thermals show up using the lift button and then clear after a few secs. Also like the in cockpit view and the fact that you can zoom in to see the real instrumentation. Need to try other scenarios before I can give it a five but so far so good and the buttons seem to be working better now. A good four for now. ### 4/5 — Great! (But please get rid of that intro music) *2015-10-23, version 1.5.4* Excellent simulator. Very enjoyable but please allow users to permanently disable that cheesy intro music. ### 3/5 — Bien, mais manque les MAJ... *2015-10-19* Bien, il manque juste les mise à jours pour iOS9 car avec un iphone6+ impossible de se servir du tchat convenablement (mode multi)car on ne peu plus enlever le clavier et l'on ne vois pas ce que l'on marque,mis à part lors de la validation du message. Pour un vélivole je trouve cela réaliste tout de même. Allé au boulot, quelques maj et c'est good! Bon vols. ### 4/5 — Gut *2015-09-08* Der Simulator ist sehr gut gelungen die Flugeigenschaften sind sehr gut zumindest von der ASK 21 (ich kenne dieses Flugzeug gut da ich selbst eine fliege) nur man kann im Windenstart ziehen wie bekloppt aber das Seil reißt nicht was eigentlich der Fall ist wenn man zu stark zieht aber sonst wäre eine metric Instrumentierung für die ASK 21 gut rein aus dem Grund weil ich sie so gewohnt bin und mich dann sicherer fühle aber sonst echt sehr gut achja und F Schlepp wäre die Krönung (Vlt auch ein Eigenstarter) ### 5/5 — Excellent ! *2015-07-29, version 1.5.4* Très bon simulateur de vol-à-voile, réalisation soignée, ambiance sonore au top pour recréer des vols assez réalistes. On ne s'en lasse pas ! ### 5/5 — Top ! *2015-07-16* Parfait ! À quand une MÀJ ??! ### 5/5 — Cut the music *2015-07-08* Great app that really does a good job but the music is very annoying. Couldn't the same effect be accomplished without the music? I just mute mine. ### 4/5 — Not bad. Needs some finishing touches. *2015-05-30, version 1.5.4* A few small things would help, such as a map view to see the overall lie of the land, where the airstrip is etc. it would be helpful, too, if flaps, air breaks would reset to zero each time,after landing and then taking off again, but I guess in a real glider this wouldn't happen. Perhaps a learner tutorial in use of flaps and air breaks would also be beneficial.It would also be good to see your approach to the airfield in playback mode from the ground, so that you could see your angle of attack etc -some of these details leave the game feeling somewhat unfinished. All in all, not bad,-and a credit to the developers. ### 5/5 — You must download now! *2015-05-15, version 1.5.4* I used to fly real gliders about 10 yrs ago. This is the closest to the real feeling! Amazing! ### 5/5 — Super *2015-04-28* Tolle Grafik und Steuerung, Audio sehr real! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 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. ### 1/5 — Unimpressed *2018-01-18, version 1.5.8* So far, I am seriously unimpressed. Loaded, start, immediately hang, with apparently several options - main menu, select, "next",but nothing works. I am using iPad MC981BA with OS 9.3.5, which is supposed to run this app. Sorry, it really should be easier to get started. ### 1/5 — Display schwarz *2015-04-27* Warum wird der Display schwarz nach einer Minute ? Fängt ja mal gut an das Spiel ### 1/5 — Schade!!! *2015-04-25* Schade, nach ca einer Minute Flugzeit wird der Bildschirm schwarz. Habe bis dahin leider nur wenige Flüge mit dem Simulator machen können. Sobald es wieder funktioniert, werde ich dem Programm die Sterne geben die es verdient - so wie jetzt. ### 1/5 — Dont buy *2014-03-16, version 1.5.4* No TE vario, no final glide computer, no change of weather, almost nobody online to race, no possibility to build your own task, no possibility to evaluate your race. Fun for 10 minutes and thats it. ### 1/5 — disappointed *2013-12-28, version 1.5.4* Rubbish keeps locking up. ### 1/5 — Calibration all wrong *2013-09-08, version 1.5* It's alright graphics, but currently unplayable, as the controls are all out of place, when I pull back, it start to go forward and when I am level it starts to pitch up and when I bank it start to pitch down. I constantly retried to calibrate it, but no luck. If there was no problem, then this game would be fantastic, please try and fix it and I will rate 5 stars, thanks ### 1/5 — Not worth it in my opinion *2013-08-17, version 1.5* Not worth buying. Taken off my device. Terrible music, blurry textures when low and slow response times when operating the menus. Not a patch on Condor, even if this is meant for mobile devices. ### 1/5 — Hoffentlichwird das noch was *2013-06-19* Läuft auf meinem iPad zwei nicht.Schalterabfrage zulamgsam und ich komm nicht in die Luft.Die Grafik der Maschiene läßt hoffen.Bitte versucht es wenigstens .Dafür meine Spende! Und einen Stern. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 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! ### 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.🙃 ### 5/5 — Very nice *2016-05-19, version 1.5.8* It is an awesome sim!!! ### 5/5 — Très sympa *2016-03-25* Pour passer le temps avant de voler en réel. On ne cherche pas le réalisme dès performances mais on retrouve qques réflexes de pilote. Bonne note donc! ### 5/5 — Another glider plz *2015-10-17, version 1.5.4* Great app but I would like a SGS Schweizer 233 plz ### 5/5 — This Is a Must Have! *2015-10-10, version 1.5.4* Absolutely brilliant. I fly gliders in real life & this simulates everything so precisely & efficiently. A few features I think should be added; Aerotow (tug plane), more gliders, more 3D objects & weather options. And maybe even more camera views. Overall, this is a 'must have' for anyone who is interested in Glidng & Soaring. Well done guys. ### 5/5 — Great Glider Simulator *2015-09-02, version 1.5.4* This app is awesome! It would be even better if additional gliders are included. :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
