Aerofly FS 2020

A highly detailed mobile flight simulator focused on western US scenery.

Visuals and Performance

Aerofly FS 2020 stands out for its impressive graphics, delivering detailed aircraft models and realistic landscapes on compatible Android devices. Cockpits are fully interactive and animated, enabling an authentic in-cabin experience for both novice pilots and aviation enthusiasts. High resolution textures and dynamic lighting effects contribute to an immersive atmosphere whether flying by day or at night. For optimal performance, the game requires a device with powerful hardware and significant storage space.

Aircraft Selection and Flight Experience

The simulator includes a fleet of 22 aircraft: commercial jets like the Boeing 777 and Airbus A380, nimble fighter jets such as the F-18 and F-15E, classic biplanes, gliders, and two helicopters. While the variety covers multiple flying styles, some users report wishing for a broader or more frequently updated selection. Flight physics are modeled to provide realistic behavior, and the sophisticated autopilot offers convenient control for longer journeys or casual play. An interactive copilot feature helps ease beginners into the experience.

World Coverage and Airports

With over 200 airports, the flyable region spans California, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado, featuring over 300,000 square miles of navigable airspace. Airport environments and some key cities are recreated with significant detail, especially around the San Francisco Bay Area. However, the map coverage is geographically limited to the western United States, which may be disappointing for those seeking global routes or iconic international airports. Several users have expressed confusion about missing regions or cities, as some promotional images may not accurately reflect in-game availability or require separate settings.

Features and Customization

Aerofly FS 2020 includes a suite of features enhancing both realism and accessibility. Adjustable weather conditions, configurable wind and turbulence, and the ability to change the time of day offer customization over each flight scenario. The automatic navigation tuning and display of terrain features assist with orientation and planning. The in-game flight school introduces basic aviation concepts for beginners. A built-in replay system allows review and analysis of past flights from multiple perspectives.

Limitations

Despite its visual fidelity and robust simulation, the game’s restricted geographic scope and relatively static aircraft list may limit its appeal to hardcore flight sim fans. Some users mention discrepancies between advertised and in-game content, especially regarding specific airports or scenery. There is no real-world global coverage or advanced route planning typical in higher-end PC simulators, and multiplayer options are not present.
