Enjoy a fully featured flight simulator. We give you a fantastic opportunity to see what real pilots encounter in critical situations. There are 5 different chapters to explore each having different actual life scenarios that happened in the past. Do you remember famous Hudson River emergency landing?

Features: - realistic plane crash simulations - missions based on actual events - realistic indicators - different time and weather conditions - tutorial missions - new FREE missions with each update - fully 3D - great music - and much more... We dedicate this game to all who lost their lives or suffered injuries in airplane crashes. Please note that this is just a game. Airplanes are still the most safe mean of transport. Any similarity between planes used in this game and real airliners is accidental. Our intention is not to show any airline in a bad light. We are committed to mimic real plane physics as much as possible and provide features that exist in real planes. We understand real pilots are playing this game as well as unexperienced players. Some features are simplified so anyone can understand and play without hassle. If you however notice anything unusual or behaving incorrectly it’s always a good idea to leave us a comment on the review or contact us directly via support page. Try to explain in details what is not right instead of just throwing empty bad reviews as this doesn’t help in improving the game. All the reviews and comments are addressed before next update is available. We would like to hear your opinion, please rate and send your feedback to flyingdreamscompany@gmail.com Facebook fanpage: https://www.facebook.com/ngflightsimulator And one more thing: WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT FLYING AND WE LOVE THIS GAME!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Makanim at none against NG Flight Simulator's 5. Makanim also leads on review sentiment (85% vs 53%). NG Flight Simulator's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 9 months) and rating (4.3 vs 4.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Makanim costs $5.99 and NG Flight Simulator $1.99 up front. NG Flight Simulator sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Makanim asks for nothing beyond the download.
NG Flight Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NG Flight Simulator has 113 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 85% of Makanim's written reviews are positive against 53% of NG Flight Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Makanim ships an update every 9 months, NG Flight Simulator every 9 days. Both last shipped on October 23, 2026.
