For a Mobile app this is a close to realistic as you can get. The full app isn't expensive and the multiplayer is a pleasant place to hang out. The UI could use a slight update and maybe a short tutorial or hints on screen for newbies. If you have real world experience or knowledge of gliding you'll enjoy it.
Very good, but doesnt seem to be fully supported for android 11. Runs in a window not full screen. Maybe full version works properly. Once in the game everything smooth. Wish there was a map to see your distance and where the airport field is to return as there is no GPS.
Excellent quality graphics. Clouds are very natural (difficult to get right) so that is better than other sims. Others have mentioned that you don't have to kill or fight and how relaxing it is. That depends on how you fly it!! Dive from 1000 ag and see if you can pull up in time!
Surprisingly good for a freebie. Limited choices and some bizarre results ( cannot fly into cloud which seems to be redrawn out of the way. ) Aircraft is responsive. Couldn't find hill or wave lift despite climbing to FL14. Difficult to do complex things .. but fun.
The very relaxing game, and you don't have to kill or fight anythting to achieve your goal. The game itself is not difficult to play so it create no stress. No flight simulator can mimic true flight, however I find this one very authentic in it's attempt. I kind of hope they try something with sailboats. If they go out it the way to did with the flight simulator I could be looking at a very relaxing afternoon on the water.
There are complaints on the App that there is no user manual, so to help: the control stick is your cellphone body, the screen lower right has the rudder pedals. you start the flight by orienting your cellphone screen toward you, and when you hit "calibrate", the control stick in cockpit is Neutral. Tilt screen forward-back for control Stick up-down. Tilt screen left-right is Stick L-R. hit Autopilot button if you get lost, or find yourself oscillating deep dive, or Zero-G stall
the sim part is great, however the on screen controls need a great deal of refining--there needs to be some kind of cue or signal or actually a slider mechanic. the inertial controls are great if you're sitting perfectly still.
I am not a 'qualified' glider/sailplane pilot/trainer. Having been in a trainer 20+ years ago at Lasham airfield, GB/UK this is pretty damn good. See how I get one with this and then may get the paid version. Only downside I have seen so far is the menu buttons at the bottom if the display are a tad small on a 7" inch tablet.
this game is amazing if you take to time to learn how to play it. even the free version is awesome. I intend to buy both full versions of this game aswell. wish people would be patient and learn how to play. they'd be much happier
Great game but only when it works. I will often be halfway through a race and it just crashes, goes black.
I'm stuck on the ground because there are NO INSTRUCTIONS on how to do anything! What good are the great graphics if you can't play? MASSIVE OVERSIGHT BY AMATEURS! Totally useless, uninstalled after 5 minutes. This is a waste of time and data!
Excellent glider simulator. Could be useful to have some lessons or tasks to perform to improve piloting skills.
Brilliant simulator. I LOVE IT. With patience I got to sixteen thousand feet today and finally reached those clouds! The yaw peddle crashes the game unfortunately but short of that its ace.
While the free game itself was okay, its optimised for an earlier handset, so I've uninstalled this version and installed the second version instead.
I LOVE THE GAME FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW TO TAKE OFF PRESS THE READY BUTTON IF YOU ARE KN PERFECT SPEED TAP HOOK NOW YOU ARE FLYING FOR THE DEVS (i have only 1 glider pro version is. Kinda expensive so i download this one)
Absolutely no instructions. I assume the first thing you do is take off the brakes. But when I hit the brake button, nothing happens. It's not much fun after that.
This game is awesome the graphics are amazing the the glider aircraft graphics are spot on keep up the good work guys
It's like this. If I can't be in a real Sailplane I can play this and have the enjoyment of the real thing. I am able to think of my late Father who's interest in flight brought it to me.
You'd get 5 stars... if only it supported either keyboard or gamepad. Difficult to fly on a Chromebook.
it looks like good flight simulator although it was last updated 2015 5 years back it does not help giving comments because I don't think the developer still exists or not interested in giving updates
It is a really nice game.The take off and landing are unrealistic though.And...WHY IS IT SO HARD TO LAND!
Good but the aerial scenery should be more realistics by high graphics and real buildings and trees
Really, I cant say anything but WOW! It is amazing to play make a atc communication speaker in a other update thank you!
This game is such a realistic flight simulator...it almost makes me..."BELIEVE I CAN FLY"!!!
I have over 600 hours in real gliders. This has no instruction manual, no help page to get you started. I uninstalled it.
Can you add aerotow where you use a glider tug aircraft that takes off from the airport and gets you to high altitude.
It's OK but a bit boring 💤 just gliding up and down, I won't be buying it sorry
I have not played this yet but it took a long to download on my Samsung Galaxy s7 edge
Nice simulator, i enjoy soaring in this. But when I landed, the plane stopped in a very long time, tho i've already pull the spoilers and push the stick down so the nose will help the plane to stop. Maybe u can improve the User Interface display too, to make it more good-looking. Cant see the altimeter and airspeed clearly. Some radiocall sounds might be interesting to add in
