Airbase Command
Read full descriptionHide full description
Take command of ground operations at your military airbase. Plan safe routes for aircraft and vehicles, coordinate their services and clear the next takeoff. On an aircraft carrier, every free stand counts. At the hangar, pilots board and disembark on foot. At an open stand, the crew vehicle takes arriving pilots to the crew area and brings the departure crew to the matching aircraft. First send an empty ammunition cart to collect the arriving load. Then deliver the new ammunition to the matching aircraft. Check the callsign and colour. A wrong delivery ends the attempt. Supply tugs move material between depot and aircraft. Unload before loading. Supplies and ammunition are separate jobs. Each aircraft has two docking positions for ground service vehicles. Each command transport brings one general. The staff vehicle transfers the general between aircraft and headquarters. Pilots use their separate crew service. Complete all requested transfers before takeoff.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Airport at 12.0 against Airbase Command's 15.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
