It is just being introduced for commercial service in the spring of 2009. The Boeing 777 is the standard for modern airliner design and efficiency, while the 747 is a double-decker, 4-engine craft, known as the original “Jumbo Jet.” The Airbus A380 is the world’s largest airplane (nicknamed the Super Jumbo), complete with fly-by-wire controls. The following aircraft are included in X-Plane Airliner: The airliners can be flown across the scenic terrain of Southern California in nice weather while enjoying the view, or in hardball IFR conditions using the glass instrumentation to pilot safely through the night. These large flying areas combined with a large number of airports and NAVAIDs let the user practice relatively long flights in any weather using glass cockpit EFIS instrumentation with moving maps. The Southern California region, for instance, spans from San Diego clear up to Edwards Air Force Base, accurately laying out airports and NAVAIDs (such as localizers, VORs, and ILSs) as they are situated in the real world. Additionally, a moving-map glass display gives the user complete situational awareness during flight, just like in real airliners.Įach of X-Plane Airliner’s flight regions are hundreds of square miles in size, with enormous numbers of NAVAIDs and airports. Along with the new flight controls, the cockpits of these aircraft are equipped with a full glass EFIS system that displays airspeed, heading, altitude, vertical speed, Mach number, DME, and HSI with localizer and glideslope in the same manner as the real airliners. X-Plane Airliner gives the user control of throttle, flaps, speedbrakes, and trim–much more control than is available in the other X-Plane Mobile apps.

It is by far the most powerful app we have yet released for the iPhone and iPod Touch. X-Plane Airliner is designed to simulate airliners and the relatively long range, instrument-capable flights that they perform. Only X-Plane 10 Mobile is currently available in the App Store.
