The X-Plane Mobile Lineup

On the iPhone and iPod Touch, each of the X-Plane Mobile applications can be downloaded from the Laminar Research page of the iTunes App Store, or by clicking the links found below.

On the Palm Pre, X-Plane Mobile can be purchased from the WebOS application store found on the phone.

Try the Trainer

X-Plane Trainer is a free version of the X-Plane applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The included Cessna 172 can be used to fly through six flight regions (the same six found in the X-Plane 9 app). Unlike the other X-Plane Mobile applications, Trainer provides on-screen instructions for taking off, flying, and landing the aircraft--perfect for users new to flying on the device. X-Plane Trainer can be downloaded from the iTunes App Store here.

X-Plane 9 The "X-Plane 9" application for the iPhone and iPod Touch is the one that started it all. With six general aviation craft, six flight regions, working autopilot and navigation radios, and user-configurable weather, time of day, aircraft weight, X-Plane 9 is the perfect introduction to X-Plane Mobile. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Airliner X-Plane Airliner's huge flight regions are designed to simulate the kind of long-range, instrument-capable flights that real airline pilots perform. Its six "big birds," with their realistic autopilot and navigation functions, make this app a lot of fun. Find X-Plane Airliner at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Extreme X-Plane Extreme is the speed demon's version of X-Plane Mobile. Not only does it feature the fastest airplane ever flown (the SR-71 Blackbird), it also comes with the fastest manned aircraft in the world (the rocket-powered X-15). The ultra-maneuverable, ultra-powerful F-22 Raptor will also turn some heads, to say nothing of the B-1 "Bone," the B-2 Spirit, and the B-52 Stratofortress. Find it all at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Planner X-Planner is a tool for flight planning. Users begin by entering the performance of their plane (this only needs to be done once and takes maybe 15 minutes). After that, users enter the departure and destination for wherever they are flying, as well as the winds aloft. X-Planner will then show the plane's weight and center of gravity with the take-off fuel on board and weight and gravity at zero-fuel as a red line across the weight and balance envelope, so users can see if they will be within weight and balance for the entire flight. Find X-Planner at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Remote X-Plane Remote is designed to interface a user's iPhone or iPod Touch with a desktop (or laptop!) copy of X-Plane. The device can be used as a wireless joystick (whose controls function just like in the other X-Plane Mobile apps). At the same time, the device can display the aircraft's instrument panel or an external moving map. This is a must for users that travel or for anyone who enjoys the X-Plane Mobile flight controls. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Glider X-Plane Glider is the first X-Plane Mobile app to feature gliders--from towing, to soaring, to setting down for a landing. The app comes with one powered and two unpowered gliders, as well as the Cessna 172 towplane. Innsbruck, Austria and five other gorgeous flight regions are provided, letting the user soar across all manner of amazing terrain with steep, tall mountains, watching the accurately simulated ridge lift carry the glider up. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page.

X-Plane Carrier X-Plane Carrier is an ultra-realistic air combat and carrier operations simulator. Your ultimate goal in the sim is to take off from the carrier, destroy your adversary in the air without being shot down yourself, and return to the carrier for landing. Complete with catapults, guns, guided missiles, and arresting gear, this is the most realistic app of its kind. Find X-Plane Carrier at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Racing X-Plane Racing is the first X-Plane app (desktop or mobile) with timed race courses that allow users to race against the computer or their friends via the Multiplayer mode. With a polished AI and a total of sixteen different race courses, this is sure to keep users challenged for a while. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Helicopter X-Plane Helicopter is the only mobile X-Plane applications featuring helicopter flight. Spanning the industry from pilot trainers to military troop movers, the app features the Robinson R22, Bell 206, Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk, and Sikorsky H-3 Sea King. Fly the Grand Canyon region and understand why this app is incredible. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. Space Shuttle Unlike the other X-Plane Mobile apps, Space Shuttle has only one aircraft available--the shuttle Orbiter. Users can sit back and watch the Shuttle's launch and entry into orbit, or take control docking with the International Space Station. If you're up for a challeng, fly the complete re-entry into Earth's atmosphere (from nearly 200,000 feet), or try the full approach to Edwards, or the final approach. Find Space Shuttle at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. X-Plane Apollo X-Plane Apollo is the most complete, realistic simulation of a lunar landing available for the iPhone and iPod Touch. It allows users to follow in the footsteps of the Apollo 11 crew, going from orbit around the moon, to entry into the atmosphere, to touchdown on the surface, to roving around the cratered terrain, to meeting back up with the command module in orbit. Find X-Plane Apollo at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. Giant Fighting Robots Giant Fighting Robots is designed as a series of mini-games in which the user becomes a robot pilot in order to defend humanity. The robots gradually progress to more and more advanced fighting craft as the machines get more and more capable and customizable. As the game goes on, the user will get access to Gatling guns, lasers, lightning guns, and guided machine guns (among about a dozen other weapons). Battles take place on a dozen different foreign worlds as the user fights back hordes of the heavily armed, artificially intelligent Spider bots. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page. Giant Fighting Robots Trainer The Giant Fighting Robots Trainer is a free introduction to the world of Giant Fighting Robots. Find it at the iTunes App Store, or learn more on its app page.
