Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flight Test Museum at none against CS Mapping's 3. Flight Test Museum also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). CS Mapping's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
