Purchase X-Plane for Professional Use

X-Plane 11 Professional-Use Digital Download

X-Plane for Professional-Use is the world’s foremost general-purpose flight simulator. It allows you to build a professional-grade flight simulator using a standard Mac, Windows, or Linux computer.

Designed for professional-use and FAA-certified simulators, the Pro-Use Digital Download Product Key will:

Allow you to download and install the full simulator, including all scenery, and unlock demo mode when connected to the internet.

Run frame-rate and joystick checks on startup, as is needed for FAA certification.

Allow you to interface with Garmin Real Simulator Units.

Include image warping calculations to make the scenery look correct on curved projection screens (for spherical and cylindrical projection systems).

Run edge blending calculations so that the images projected by adjacent projectors look correct (so that you do not get bright bands in the area of the projection between adjacent projectors).

License your simulator for commercial use (i.e., any use of X-Plane outside your own home or office). This license is also required for generating revenue, either directly or indirectly, using X-Plane.

Here is how it works:

When you purchase the Pro-Use Digital Download, you will receive an email confirmation with your product key. This key will allow you to download, install, and use the full X-Plane 11 simulator without needing any other products.

Older Versions of X-Plane for Professional Use

Note: To use any of the USB keys, you will need a set of X-Plane 10 DVDs or a digital download product key. The X-Plane scenery is not included with the USB keys. Only one set of DVDs or digital download product key is required for any number of computers using USB keys, however–that is, you do not need one set of discs per computer, just one set total. Note that you will need one USB key per computer in your simulator; thus, a commercial-grade simulator made up of 10 computers would need 10 USB keys and a single set of DVDs.

To use these USB keys, you will need to download and install the HASP USB key driver.

For professional-caliber flight sim hardware, we recommend Precision Flight Controls. Their training hardware have been certified for use with X-Plane for Professional Use.
