Prepare for landing, or prepare for absolute airline chaos! Welcome to Dear Pilot, the ultimate mobile airline-chaos survival game where every flight is a race against time, physics, and a cascade of critical emergencies. Can you manage the cabin, keep the passengers buckled, secure loose cargo, and pilot the cockpit to ensure a safe arrival? CHOOSE YOUR MANIFEST Build your own risk and reward contract for each flight. Select your route, passenger profile, and cargo type. High-risk contracts promise massive career payouts, but they also bring severe weather, volatile payloads, and unpredictable emergencies. DUAL-ROLE GAMEPLAY Switch roles on the fly! Walk the cabin floor as a crew member to serve passenger requests, buckle up nervous fliers during severe turbulence, and strap down loose cargo before it crashes through the hull. Need to stabilize the flight? Switch to the cockpit in first-person view to adjust the throttle, center the horizon, and override autopilot errors. SURVIVE CASCADING EMERGENCIES One bad problem can quickly turn into five. Grab your tools and race to fix critical incidents before deadlines expire: • Extinguish electrical engine fires in the galley. • Walk out onto the wing to clear dangerous ice accumulation. • Secure escaped live animal cargo running wild in the aisles. • Manage cabin pressure loss and decompression before passengers are ejected! • Evade bird strikes and maintain flight path coordinates under heavy wind load. DEAR PILOT ACADEMY First time flying? Complete the penalty-free Dear Pilot Academy! Learn the controls step-by-step from passenger boarding and cargo belt loading to flight controls and incident management.
