Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Learn 2 Fly at Free against Flight!'s $0.99. Learn 2 Fly also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 96). Flight!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On rating, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
