Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Aviateur at 87% against Extreme Plane Flight Simulator's 38%. Aviateur also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ads (none vs shown). Extreme Plane Flight Simulator's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 13) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
