Between the many options for free and paid add on aircraft, and the high quality aircraft included with X-Plane, you’re almost guaranteed to find your airplane of choice available in X-Plane.

Our flight simulator is easy to use, and it provides a safe environment to practice tricky situations. How prepared are you to land in a 30 mph crosswind? In heavy rain?
X-Plane lets you simulate a host of systems failures, from your avionics to your engines. It can also simulate flight in a heavy storm, or landings in a crosswind. By preparing in X-Plane for these situations, you’ll be more confident in your abilities in the air.
