ABOUT AIRPORTSIM
AirportSim is a contemporary and realistic simulator that gives you the chance to take your first step into the world of civil aviation as an airport ground handler. Whether you’re a beginner in this genre or a pro that knows the ins and outs, AirportSim, with its realistic graphics, real-life models of airports, licensed machines, dynamic weather conditions, three different gameplay modes, and a team of experts supporting its development, will deliver you the fun, challenge, and setting of a genuine airport apron.
AIRPORTSIM – GAMEPLAY
AirportSim starts where Microsoft Flight Simulator ends. While the aircraft’s arrival at the gate is the end of its journey, it’s also the beginning of the ground crew’s duties. Welcoming passengers, offloading baggage, refueling large planes, pushing them back for departure – all that and more await those willing to start their career in ground operations.
You have to remember that in this line of work, efficiency, time, and precision all matter equally. Whether it’s a tug, tanker, air bridge, or even a luggage belt, they all handle differently and are affected by various weather conditions.
This especially applies if you perform real-life tasks on licensed airports and aircraft, since AirportSim is being developed with multiple civil aviation industry companies, ensuring it’s as realistic as possible.
That’s also why dynamic weather conditions were implemented in the game. On open tarmac, with gale-force winds blowing or a violent thunderstorm sweeping by, you’ll be forced to change the dynamic of your operations.
Combined with online and local co-op and the Free Roam, Scenario, and Challenge modes to meet your skills and needs, AirportSim will be a game like no other.
