Description

Here is the long-awaited successor to our critically acclaimed flight simulator. It simulates the Space Shuttle approach and landing in incredible detail and accuracy.
This is a remaster of our original F-Sim Space Shuttle, completely rewritten from scratch. New features include:
- Console quality graphics
- Interactive tutorials
- White Sands as a third landing site option
- Orbit mode
F-Sim Space Shuttle combines realistic flight simulation with stunning graphics and fun gameplay.
You’ve never landed a Space Shuttle before? We’ve got you covered: Included are several tutorials with varying degrees of autopilot assist. Our landing analysis and scoring system tells you exactly how to improve your next landing. It will make you come back and try again.
Each flight starts at either 10,000 feet, already aligned with the runway, or at up to 50,000 feet, before banking into the heading alignment cone. During descent, the Orbiter is an unpowered glider, so you will only have one chance to get it right. Astronauts used to call it a flying brick: Because of its 200,000 lbs. gross weight and low lift over drag ratio, the approach is six times steeper and two times faster than a typical airliner approach. After your first safe touchdown, chase that perfect landing, compare your high scores online with your friends, earn medals, and unlock achievements. Experiment with different wind conditions, night approaches, and even emergency scenarios or system failures. At the end of each flight, watch a replay from different camera angles.
You control the Orbiter’s pitch and roll axes by tilting your device. Alternatively, you may switch to on-screen analog sticks or use a gamepad. Rudder, speed brake, gear, and chute are usually handled by the autopilot, but you can have full manual control if you like. For beginners, we’ve added rectangles that visualize the desired approach path. Simply try to stay within the corridor of rectangles, and they’ll guide you right to the touchdown point. Advanced pilots can turn them off and rely on the instruments in the head-up display (HUD) instead. The simulated guidance, navigation and control (GNC) systems are authentic replications of their counterparts in the real Orbiter, and the HUD features all the instruments real Space Shuttle commanders used to employ to skillfully land this unique aircraft. Now it’s your turn to give it a try.
A new orbit mode lets you take the Orbiter for a spin around the planet, and we’re working on a full atmospheric re-entry scenario, which, among other new features, will be released as free updates in the coming months.

Almost

I love this shuttle app it’s just a shame that re entry isn’t ready yet and most of the landings register as crash landings even though they are almost perfect landings. More audio chatter would be good and better terrain graphics. Please update it soon.

Amazing

Amazing addition to the first sim but when is the re entry going as soon as that’s here definitely5 stars

Not worth it at all- waste of money

So in the videos it shows how you can decent from space and land, that feature is still not available, so the video was taken from a different game, is not worth it because every time i butter the landing, it still says crash landing, and thats where it makes my mood go from high to extreme down. Very disappointing for this price, i will be getting a refund by contacting apple pay.

Feel a bit scammed

Re-entry mode ever gonna get released?

Love it

Great game. Looking forward to full re-entry upgrade

Promised features never added

Orbit scenario to be added “in the coming months” nearly four years ago. Either release it or update the description to be honest. Other than that it’s quite good fun. Swiping up to return to the Home Screen moves the viewport, and I wish it would give a couple of seconds to steady the gyro sensors when launching.

I didn’t like it

It’s pretty sure, but you’re just circling the earth in orbit or on approach for the landing, I thought I’d be able to take off, fly around in space and then decide to come back in to land as and when I wanted to. Played for about 10 minutes and I’ll be looking to get a refund. Sorry guys, this one isn’t for me.

Very satisfying

Superb. I’d recommend this app.

Re-entry?

As a paid for game how much longer do I need to wait for re-entry?

Really Sorry Guys

I downloaded this with high hopes but alas. I’m really disappointed with the game, every landing I make no matter how careful is shown as a crash landing meaning I can’t unlock extra features like veteran, the orbit flights I’m sad to say are just boring, the re entry would have made it more interesting but I knew that wasn’t available when I bought the app. I was really looking forward to this app but I hate to say it, respectfully to the developers I have found it boring in a very short space of time. It has so much potential and I have no doubt that in the future it will be a great app being able to carry out re entry and a landing but for now it’s just not for me. Any chance of a refund guys please?
