X-Plane

See for yourself why professional aviators choose X-Plane.

It all begins with our unparalleled flight model—the very same technology certified by the FAA for professional desktop simulators. It's so comprehensive it simulates wing flex and landing gear tilt.

Combine that with desktop-quality aircraft featuring multiple liveries and fully interactive 3D cockpits. They're so detailed you can perform a complete startup procedure using hundreds of authentic buttons, knobs, and switches. With operational gauges, flight displays, and more, these cockpits match the realism of our full-scale desktop simulator.

But even the best aircraft need a world to explore. That's why every free region includes meticulously crafted terrain, realistic cityscapes, and true-to-life 3D airports complete with terminal buildings, jetways, hangars, and more.
