Laminar Research have announced the release of X-Plane 10 Mobile for iPhone and iPad, adding a new level of realism to the travelling pilot, away from their primary sim, or those who just want to visit the world in a portable format.

Having tried the single free aircraft in the new sim, as well as several other iPad-based flight simulator titles, this one really does bring something new to the series and is well worth having a look at.

Laminar Research announces the release of X-Plane 10 Mobile for iPhone and iPad

South Carolina December 17, 2014

Laminar Research, creators of the X-Plane flight simulator franchise, has announced the release of X-Plane 10 Mobile, the premiere flight simulation product for the iPad and iPhone.

X-Plane 10 Mobile was built using the same concepts in Laminar’s showcase desktop product, XPlane 10. As with the desktop version of X-Plane, the mobile version utilizes real physics to model the aerodynamic forces found in flying an actual aircraft. The result is a product that is not just another game, but rather a highly sophisticated simulation of how aircraft actually behave in a variety
of environments and weather conditions.

Version 10 contains numerous features and enhancements not found in the previous mobile version
of X-Plane, including:

• 2-person multiplayer over the Internet

• Many additional aircraft – – from a Piper Cub to the Airbus, and it even includes combat aircraft and a helicopter… all with 3D cockpits and available as in-app purchases

• Challenges – – over 20 scenarios including engine failures, mountain top landings, birdstrikes, and even airstrikes, where you dodge incoming anti-aircraft guns missiles

• Flight School tutorials – – including the basics of takeoffs & landings, flying traffic patterns, and how to bomb ground targets

• Brand new, modern user interface – – designed just for mobile devices

• Improved combat system- – – with better missile guidance, more accurate weapon simulation and more realistic explosions

• Realistic airport environments – – including airport buildings

X-Plane 10 Mobile is available as a free App on the Apple iTunes Store and includes a free Cessna 172 starter aircraft. Additional aircraft may be purchased using the in-App purchase feature. An Android version is also scheduled for future development.
