Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: New York Flight Simulator at none against Flight Simulator FlyWings 2014's shown. New York Flight Simulator also leads on ratings volume (396 vs 70) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). Flight Simulator FlyWings 2014's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 22 months) and rating (3.6 vs 3.2). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Flight Simulator FlyWings 2014 holds the better App Store score, 3.6 against 3.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: New York Flight Simulator has 396 ratings behind it against 70, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Flight Simulator FlyWings 2014's written reviews are positive against 31% of New York Flight Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Flight Simulator FlyWings 2014 ships an update fortnightly, New York Flight Simulator every 22 months. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
