If you have ever stared out the tiny window of a commercial flight and thought you could probably land the thing yourself, this is exactly where you need to be. Forget clunky arcade controls. We are talking about a full blown aviation sandbox that hands you the keys to over two dozen incredibly detailed aircraft.

THE ULTIMATE AVIATION SANDBOX

You get to hop straight into the pilot’s seat of massive passenger planes, nimble helicopters, sleek seaplanes, and high speed military jets. The fully rendered 3D cockpits are ridiculously immersive, making you feel every bit the captain. You can totally ignore the rules and just cruise the massive open world, chasing breathtaking sunsets and exploring vibrant landscapes from thousands of feet in the air.

If you prefer some actual structure, the game packs fifty intense missions to test your nerve. One minute you are hauling heavy cargo across long distances, and the next you are pulling off high stakes search and rescue operations.

BUILDING YOUR OWN SKY EMPIRE

Why stop at just flying when you can run the whole show? You can literally start your own airline from the ground up. As the cash rolls in, you buy more planes and expand your fleet to dominate the commercial airspace. It isn’t just a numbers game, either. You get to completely customize your aircraft with fresh paint jobs and dump money into serious performance upgrades to make them handle beautifully. Before long, you will be touching down at over twenty of the most famous, heavily trafficked international airports on the planet.

SURVIVING BRUTAL FLIGHT HAZARDS

Cruising at high altitudes is totally relaxing right up until things go completely sideways. The game actively tries to ruin your day with brutal, unpredictable flight hazards. Suddenly, you are wrestling the yoke through a terrifying storm or sweating bullets trying to stick a landing on rough terrain with a completely blown engine. The adrenaline rush of safely putting a massive metal bird on the tarmac during an absolute crisis is completely unmatched.
