This game has potential. I'm recommending this game because I can see the vision. However, in its current state it is very limited but im choosing to see this more as an investment. PROS: - Cool My Summer Car (MSC) vibe building the planes sub systems and needing to maintain them. - A good balance between a full blown sim and a sim-lite when it comes to flying and starting aircraft - Game has actually forced me to learn VOR to VOR navigation by explaining it pretty simply which I think is pretty cool - While you have to build engines and subsystems it doesn't over complicate itself like MSC where i need to fit Hydraulics or electrical systems etc - Game has build in manual on how to build said plane unlike MSC which makes the process much easier so I actually wouldnt be opposed to them adding more systems to build in the plane. CONS: - As stated VERY LIMITED as of NOW, 3 Islands, Jobs without reward, No job variations. - Bugs, to be clear I have only encountered a FEW bugs such as the refuelling hose being a pain sometimes but something to iron out with the game already being as limited as it is right now. - As already stated there's a lack of reward for the jobs you do, but again I see the vision, could be fixed by adding monetary rewards that can be used for replacement parts to order or upgrades and increased customisation to the plane/MORE PLANES - Flight model can be a little janky at times it feels and landing feels challenging but not in a good way with full flap extension I feel I have to angle 45 degrees downwards just to descend. IN CONCLUSION; Is there a lot to work on and fix in this game? YES. But I'll stand by my positive review in the hopes it allows the dev/devs time and the resources needed to really turn this game into something really cool and be the slightly simpler version of MSC, rewards, more aircraft, NPC's (maybe) and overall just more stuff to do. As stated I see the vision and can see myself being VERY excited to play this game once more content comes through. EDIT: In the latest update the Dev left notes on a roadmap for the future with no dates in mind but covering a lot of the issues raised above which is very nice to see.

I have several hundred hours on Microsoft Flight Sim so this immediately grabbed my attention. There isn't much to the game at this point. In under 3 hours I assembled the plane, and flew it to the two other destinations on the map with no problems. The developer seems responsive to discussions and generally eager to show us what they have planned, so I was happy to support them at this stage. I hope to see more types of planes soon. I think something like a DHC-6 Twin Otter would fit really well in this game! <3

Best value for money flying game out there right now. I am a certified pilot and fly aircraft in real-life, and this is exactly what I was hoping for. Doesn't need to be super realistic or fancy like microsoft flight sims, only needs to be fun! Which is exactly what this game is set out to be. Looking forward to seeing how development pans out.
