AirlineTrivia

1000 airlines. 1000 hand-painted tail logos. How fast can you name them?

Can you recognize Lufthansa, Braniff or Sabena by the tail fin alone? AirlineTrivia is the quiz for everyone who wants to name every aircraft through the terminal window, and for everyone who wants to learn how.

1000 AIRLINES, EVERY LOGO PAINTED BY HAND

1000 airlines from 201 countries, half of them flying today and half long gone. I keep this balance with every update, so legends like Pan Am or Swissair show up just as often as today's carriers. 100 airlines also come with their special liveries, 35 of them with two.

NEW: TAIL OF THE DAY

The widget for your Home Screen shows a different airline every day, with country, year founded and fleet size. Tap it to open the full airline profile in the app. Learn a new tail every day without even trying. Available as a small and a medium widget.

NINE GAME MODES, ONE SWIPE

Swipe through the game mode carousel and pick your round:

• Recognize the tail logo
• IATA code (2 characters)
• ICAO code (3 characters)

Each with all airlines, active airlines only or defunct airlines only.

YOU SET THE DIFFICULTY

• Worldwide or by region: Europe, Asia, North America, South & Central America, Africa, Oceania
• Pixelation in four levels: the logo sharpens over time, and the higher the level, the more points you score
• Show the country flag as a hint, but you get less time for full points
• Highlight the correct answer in green after a mistake: learning instead of frustration
• An info button next to every setting explains what it does

POINTS, SPEED, HIGH SCORE

The faster you answer correctly, the more points you get. The Liquid Glass answer buttons light up green or red, with optional sound and haptic feedback you can feel. High scores are kept separately for each game mode and region, and at the end you see your hit rate and your rank. Save a long round at any time and continue exactly where you left off.
