About

AeroRush Flight Sim

Features
Read full description

AeroRush Flight Sim is a flight simulation game built to make real pilot habits easier to understand. Start in Flight School and learn how a light aircraft feels: build airspeed on the runway, hold centerline, rotate smoothly, climb at a safe speed, fly gentle turns, recover from stalls, and use runway lights to practice stable approaches. Then enter Helicopter Academy to practice collective control, cyclic hover work, pedal turns, helipad approaches, soft touchdowns, emergency recovery drills, vortex-ring-state avoidance, translational-lift management, and a sling-load rescue route with live scoring. The simulator includes Student Assist for first-time pilots, live instructor-style coaching, a live instructor console, local training records, cockpit instruments, rotor instruments, training gates, landing scoring, objective debrief reports, engine sound, haptics, and offline play. AeroRush Flight Sim is designed as an educational game and simulation. It is not a certified flight training device and should not be used as a substitute for instruction from a qualified flight instructor.

Flight Sim Checklists keeps the cockpit flow in your hand while you fly on the sim. Pick your aircraft, work the checklist challenge-and-response style, and tap each line as it's called — no scrolling a PDF on a second monitor, no losing your place halfway down the approach. Built for desktop simmers who fly with a phone or tablet propped up next to the yoke. AIRCRAFT INCLUDED • Airbus A320 / A330 — 11 sections, Cockpit Preparation through Securing the Aircraft • Airbus A300 — 9 sections, Before Start through Securing Aircraft • Boeing 737 NG — 10 sections, Preflight through Secure 158 items in total, written in the ACTION → RESPONSE layout used on the flight deck, so what you read matches what you'd hear. RUN A CHECKLIST • Tap any line to check it off — it dims so your eye lands on what's left • Mark a whole section complete in one tap, or unmark it to run it again • Move between sections with buttons labelled with the actual next and previous section names • Haptic feedback on every check, with a distinct confirmation when a section completes SEE WHERE YOU ARE • A progress ring on each aircraft card shows how far through the flight you are • The section menu colour-codes every section: not started, in progress, or complete • Reopen an aircraft and it drops you straight back at the first section you haven't finished • Aircraft with a flight in progress sort to the top of the home screen • Reset a single section or the whole aircraft whenever you want a clean start • Progress clears itself after a day of inactivity, so the next flight never starts half-checked BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD • iPad runs a two-column layout — section list on the left, live checklist on the right • iPhone keeps the checklist full-screen with the section list one tap away • Portrait and landscape, so it works flat on the desk or clipped to a stand • Dark mode, Dynamic Type, and full VoiceOver labelling on every item NO STRINGS • Works completely offline — every checklist ships inside the app • No account, no sign-in, no subscription • No ads, no analytics, no tracking, nothing collected about you For flight simulation and training-familiarisation use only. Not for use in real-world aviation. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Airbus, Boeing, Microsoft, or any aircraft manufacturer or simulator publisher. Always fly the real aircraft by its official, current documentation.
