X-Plane iPhone Apps Get Replay Mode, Hi-Res Maps

Laminar Research has updated all six of their iPhone X-Plane titles with numerous improvements including Replay Mode and Hi-Res Maps

X-Plane for Mac, Windows, and Linux (www.X-Plane.com) 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.

What's New In This Version:
● Replay mode! When you hit the pause button, you enter replay mode now! Fast forward and rewind as desired to see the last bit of your flight


● No more getting away with digging your props into the ground... if you do that, then that is counted as a crash!

● Hi-res map, complete with airport runways! Just zoom in on the existing map to get amazing detail!

● New paint for many of the planes, with more detail! This helps many of the planes really look more real.

● Lighting and fog model area bit more detailed... the sky gets grayer as the visibility comes down. As well, mountain and cloud rendering should look more realistic above those overcast layers


●Frame-rate optimizations to get that frame-rate up a bit more for smoother flight dynamics!

● With the improved airplane paint on many of the planes, improved sky colors and cloud rendering, and improved frame-rate, the whole experience is just a bit more realistic and fluid.

You can purchase X-Plane from the App Store for $9.99.
