Are you the pilot we`re looking for? Do you think you can land this job? You will be given 3 levels of training with a small propeller plane, and if you manage this, you`re on your own. From there on you will need to steer this small plane, tackle all kinds of weather and turbulence, as well as avoid birds and other airborne objects. But most importantly, you need to land! If you fail to land within a certain angle you will fail, and neither of us would want that. If you manage to land the plane on a bunch of different airfields, you will be promoted and get in charge of a big passenger plane, probably with your own captain`s hat. The plane moves slightly slower up and down, but flies quicker through the air than the propeller plane. Again, avoid crashing into stuff, and always land safely. Should you, by pure luck, successfully land the passenger plane on a whole lot of airfields around the world, you might get a shot at the coolest plane of them all, a jet fighter. The jet fighter moves very quickly and is harder to handle when it comes to avoiding birds, missiles, helicopters and such, so this is for the elite only!P.S. Only the very best of the best will ever be able to take control of the Spacecraft.... It`s a dangerous task, but we believe some of you out there might be the one we are looking for in this project. We can offer: * A varied job where no days are exactly the same * Nice salary. At least if you are good at collecting coins * Non-stop action every day * You get to experience new places and see local wildlife * Use your salary (coins) to upgrade your planes So if you think you`ve got what it takes to be our next pilot don`t hesitate to download "Pilot Project" now and give it a go!

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pilot Project at every 3 days against DIY Simulator 3D's every 19 months. Pilot Project also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
