So much that is good, yet ........

Mostly a really positive experience but a few niggly aspects make it a pain sometimes. It takes far too long to unlock the various options and you run the risk of getting bored just flying the same routes in a limited number of aircraft. Secondly, once you have the aircraft on course and have established straight and level flight there is nothing to do. On the longer flights you can literally put your iPad down and go and make a cup of tea; come back and find you are still some way off your destination. On the positive side it is easy to control the aircraft and they do respond well to your input. It would seem this sim is still very much a work in progress but it shows real potential.

Probably best in the series

This one probably has the best graphics and certainly most amount of aircraft. It is relatively easy to master and I love the manual flaps and gears introduction. A random weather generator would be good to have rather than just choosing ( but it takes ages to get to unlock the different ones)

Also a random location would make it more fun.

Overall, absorbing and infectious

Airplane

Best simulator I have used but it would help if the airports gave an indication which way they are lying also if the altimeter had a small dial to indicate just how high your flying
I have just opened the night flight, don't do it I thought the runways would be lit up but they are almost in possible to find. This part of the game is poor
