I know that obviously the developers can’t have buildings and all this other fancy stuff for every airport, but for some major airports there is little to no scenery at all. For example, at Atlanta Jackson Airport there is the auto-generated buildings, but no runway markings and the scenery around the airport is terrible. Atlanta has previously been the busiest airport in the world, and barely has anything going for it in Aerofly.

Some other major airports in the U.S. that match the same things said:

Charlotte

Houston

Dallas

Honolulu

Toronto (Canada but idc)

Pittsburgh

Yes, an ATC-System, a fuel and weight system, ground services, metar and multiplayer are the most popular and most important requests.

Nevertheless, I feel like, there’s something that is talked about too little and that is special effects. A game feels alive when there are these effects.

Here, I’ll list some that are quite important:

1. Smoke after touch down. This is the sign that your plane has made contact with the ground. It would make watching the landings in replay mode much more enjoyable.

2. The heat behind the engines that makes the air look blurry.

3. Vortices. The clouds that build up over the wings. Beautiful to witness in person.

4. Breaking the speed of sound. It would make flying fighter jets way more exciting (even tho you wouldn’t even notice it as a pilot).

There’s probably much more that you can come up with:)

I feel like some of these should’ve already been added tbh

Hello, Ipacs , as much as we enjoy the game, they are still some basics missing which in the absence of these the game gets boring at some point

1. Live weather and time

2. Weight. We should be able to adjust fuel,payload and etc

3. Old waypoints. Please update the waypoints at least to simbrief standard

4. Touchdown sounds for other aircrafts

5. And lastly an internal map for progress check

Bonus: AI ATC

Thank you.

Adding weight is not “basic” it is something that is very complicated to add and develop. It will probably be added in the following years I assume. Though I agree with everything else

And then the 10.

The -10 isn’t even in service yet and probably won’t be for a while because the FAA is rightfully so more strict on Boeing.

I think this should work. The time is at around 2 mins 20 seconds

Can you share the video with us please?

Sorry if this is annoying, but I’m unsure how to on mobile. Could you tell me how I can?

So, I was watching a video of the flaps sound of the 787 and when I was looking at the spoilers from the flight control checks, the inner spoilers also go up with the outer ones on the ground. I think that this would be a pretty easy thing to add to the 787, and would just be nice for a bit more realism.

Aerofly FS Global stands out as one of the most advanced and realistic flight simulators available on mobile platforms. With its accurate flight dynamics, stunning graphics, and detailed aircraft systems, it offers an impressive simulation experience. However, there’s still one major feature that many sim enthusiasts are missing: the ability to start Cold and Dark at all airports, not just selected 3D airports.

Why Should It Be Limited?

Cold and Dark — starting the aircraft from scratch, turning on batteries, starting the APU, and eventually the engines — is one of the most immersive and rewarding parts of a realistic flight sim experience. But currently, this feature is only available at certain detailed 3D airports.

This limitation creates a barrier for users who want to fly from more remote or lesser-known locations. While spawning with everything powered up is quick and convenient, for many players, realism begins with powering up the aircraft manually.

Cold and Dark Should Be Available Everywhere

The development team could easily allow Cold and Dark starts even at non-3D airports by providing basic ramp or gate positions, even if the surroundings aren’t as detailed. This would offer a greater sense of freedom and allow users to prepare and depart from any location they choose, following proper procedures.

Why Is This Feature So Important?

It enhances realism: Starting from Cold and Dark is at the heart of flight simulation.

It's educational: It helps new users learn proper procedures and aircraft systems.

It adds depth: Longer and more detailed preparation makes the experience more satisfying.

It gives meaning to every airport: Even the smallest airport becomes a valid and immersive departure point.

Conclusion

If the Aerofly FS Global team makes Cold and Dark available at all airports — regardless of 3D modeling — it would significantly improve user satisfaction and deepen the simulator’s appeal. It’s technically feasible, and it’s something the community has long been asking for.

Hopefully, this highly requested feature becomes reality soon. Because starting up an aircraft from cold isn’t just the beginning of a flight — it’s a passion.

Well there’s thousands of airports, and a handful of devs. It takes a while to get EVERY airport with buildings and other things of that matter on airports.

Is there a way to calculate/view how long a flight should take? I know there’s a tab on the A350 that allows you to see, but im flying the 777. I want to sleep overnight while doing flights so I can land them in the morning, yet I have no idea how to time it correctly.

And also, how do I prevent the flight logs from splitting like this;

Currently I don’t think that it is possible, but I think that this would be something really cool for the developers to add in the future.

I’d like to suggest the implementation of a basic weight and fuel system to increase realism and immersion. Currently, all aircraft have a fixed fuel load and weight, which removes the challenge and variation that comes with flight planning.

What I imagine is a simple interface (a tablet or menu) where users could input:

— Aircraft type

— Departure and arrival airports

— Weather (optional)

— Payload or number of passengers

— Desired reserve fuel

Based on that, the system would automatically calculate:

— ZFW and ZFWCG

— Block fuel

— Takeoff and landing weights

— V-speeds

— Trim suggestion

— Cruise altitude recommendation

Even a simplified version of this would add great depth to the sim without needing to change core flight mechanics right away. Fuel burn could remain basic at first, just affecting weight progressively throughout the flight.

I understand this may require time and testing, but it's definitely feasible and would set Aerofly even further apart from other mobile sims.

I’m certain the devs have already had this noted for a long time, but maybe as something being worked on in the background. It’s likely being developed, but it is very difficult to do so it will probably be a while before it gets released.

Found this Flaps A350

Better but it has like shuffling sounds ETC so I don’t think the devs could use it

Zitat von sousuke

I think this flap sound is betterA350 flap sound

There’s people talking in the background so they couldn’t use the audio anyways. The current flap sound is good enough.

Zitat von Jet-Pack (IPACS)

Yes.

Will there ever be a new Airbus? I need new long-haul aircraft. I have now been through all of them with the 777, twice to New York, with the A380 once to New York and with the 787 once to Los Angeles and with the new A350, everything in real time. I need something new like an A340 or A330.

Yeah and if they were to release an A340, you would then get bored of that again and make this exact same thread. They are for sure already working on a new plane currently, just not showing us because of what happened with the A350. It takes many months and money for the developers to make and develop a new plane. It is not as easy as you think, and there is no need to make the devs even more stressed to get a new plane out in the sim.

Zitat von Guilherme_Carvalho

Being realistic, i trully hope to see the 763 or the 332 soon in the app.

But, what i really really want to fly is the MD11! Only a few mobile flight simulators have it, but they're either in a low quality or have a bad selection of liveries.

It seems like more and more people are requesting the MD-11 more recently, I think they now may be thinking of adding it by now. I’m not sure though and none of what I said is confirmed so take it with a grain of salt.

The simulator already has windshear, I saw it in a video on Ryg Aviation's YouTube and in the EGCC final it had windshear

I also saw that video but I’m sure that he just edited it in and was not from the game.

Zitat von Jet-Pack (IPACS)

Ok and is this issue only happening on these two aircraft or others as well?

Just the two as of now. I will test out some other planes to see if this occurs.

Zitat von Jet-Pack (IPACS)

Do you resume the flight from the beginning of the replay or do you start a new flight?

The beginning of the replay

Sometimes I like to land at short runway airports in either the F-15 or 18, and after I do a lot of replays, the throttle becomes uncontrollable and will always stay at 0%. Even when I try to spawn from the very start from the replay button, it stays at 0%.

I know I have made some threads about weather in the past, but that was mostly about more complex weather mechanics ETC. I think that adding windshears would make landing in windy/turbulent weather conditions more challenging and realistic. Windshears obviously aren’t extremely common, so they wouldn’t happen that often. I think a way to make it be more likely in certain conditions would be to have windshears have say a 1/2000 chance to randomly occur at altitudes lower than a specific amount of feet in clear conditions, but more likely in windier and turbulent conditions.
