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.

There aren't many space games that are realistic, but this one is! It is simple, but challenging, and with great graphics! I hope the reentry scenario comes out soon! A launch sequence would be pretty cool too!

Wonderful simulator! A great improvement over the original. I always wondered what it's like to fly the shuttle. With this sim, I can experience just that. Just one question, do you have any ideas when the re-entry mode will be released? Thank you!

No tilt control! I would like a refund, still not fixed 2 months later. The game is uninstalled.

This app is horrible. Such a downgrade from the original (which I'll stick with). Graphics from within the shuttle are so poor. It's so hard to see the runway. They keep promising shuttle control from orbit, but it's been over a year, and we're still waiting. UPDATE: The Developer asked for screenshots which I sent. His response: "Yeah whatever. It’s obviously not for you, play something else. Write your one-star review if it makes you feel better but leave us alone. "

I've been flying the original version for years. I loved it. I just found out about this version, and decided to give it a try. Overall, it is a far leap backwards. Not being able to set the weather, arm the gear, parachute, etc. There's a LOT to be wanted with this game. I personally would have liked to see at MINIMUM a continuation of where the old game left off... But it seems we have stepped far back. 2 stars for now, in hopes you guys fix the above issues. Graphics are really nice though!
