Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pilot Kurt at none against Flight Simulator's 12. Pilot Kurt also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Flight Simulator's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and rating (4.1 vs 3.7). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
