X-Plane 9 by Laminar Research is a new flight simulator application for the iPhone.

X-Plane for Mac, Windows, and Linux is the most flexible and realistic flight simulator on the market for desktop personal computers. Using blade element theory for the most powerful and accurate flight model available for personal computers, and earning FAA certification for logging of flight time for pilots, X-Plane is the Gold Standard for accurate flight simulation, offering realism that is unmatched by any other simulator.

Now, thanks to the power of the iPhone and iPod touch, X-Plane is available for these stunning little platforms. As in the full desktop version, X-Plane for iPhone lets you experiment with different times of day, weather, sky conditions, wind, turbulence and airplanes, all while flying the craft from various different views in the stunning terrain topography of Innsbruck, Austria, home to some of the most challenging mountains and topography for aviation.

X-Plane is available from the App Store for $9.99.

Try App Store -> Games -> then on the left hand side below the Categories you will see another list called \"More Games\" - click on simulation. Should be on the first page, 3rd row.
