There is the training server for players with slightly more experience, designed to give players the opportunity to learn how to play the game to it’s full extent, and the expert server for highly experienced players.

Infinite Flight is an amateur flight simulator developed by Infinite Flight LLC.[1] The game is available for Android and iOS.

Gameplay

The simulator includes single-player and multi-player modes, including an option to play as air traffic control.[2] As a mobile game, Infinite Flight relies on the device's accelerometer for flight control.[2][3]

Reception

In a 2011 review, Windows Central wrote that the simulator got better with experience and would likely appeal to fans of the genre.[3] In 2012, The Mac Observer gave the first release a score of 2.5/5 ("Disappointing"), comparing it negatively to other flight simulators.[4] In 2014, Engadget considered Infinite Flight one of the best on the App Store[5] and The New York Times called it the best on mobile devices.[6] FlightSim.com later wrote approvingly of the just-released C-130 aircraft, saying that the game's newer models were much better than earlier models.[7]
