Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pilot Ace at none against Gunship Sequel's 10. Pilot Ace also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%). Gunship Sequel's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (14K vs 21). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gunship Sequel sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Pilot Ace asks for nothing beyond the download.
Gunship Sequel holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gunship Sequel has 14K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Pilot Ace's written reviews are positive against 79% of Gunship Sequel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Pilot Ace ships an update every 3 months, Gunship Sequel every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 29, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
