Whether you are a casual gamer who has always wanted to fly or an experienced pilot who wants to test your skills, Microsoft Flight will have you in the air in no time. Choose from a variety of aircraft and fly over the rich, beautiful landscapes of Hawaii. Test your skills at free flight or set off on a multitude of pre-assigned missions, challenges and aerocache hunts to build your career and earn points. It all begins with you…

It is all about the planes! Choose from a variety of aircraft, from historical planes to cutting edge personal aircraft. Planes are stored in your Hangar where you can stop by to switch to a different aircraft, select a different paint scheme, fuel up, or download new planes. Check back often as new aircraft are being released regularly.

Simply stated-you can’t get more real than Microsoft Flight. Whether you are looking across the Hawaiian Islands from 10,000 feet or coming in for a water landing, the realism is second to none. Microsoft Flight looks real because it is built from the real world. Fly across the mountains or practice take-offs from a variety of airports. The amount of detail visible from the ground or in-flight will blow you away.

Earn experience points and build a career through a variety of activities available to you in Microsoft Flight.

Missions will help get you in the air and flying as soon as possible. With the first few Missions, you’ll learn flying basics and gameplay essentials. Once you’ve mastered the foundation, the missions get more and more challenging as you work your way down the list.

Challenges test your flying skills by forcing you to put your aircraft through its paces while trying to achieve specific goals. If you do well, you can earn a bronze, silver or gold trophy.

Aerocaches are hidden objects that we have scattered across the virtual landscape. If you need help

finding them, you can start an Aerocache Hunt.

Jobs give you an opportunity to fly a virtually endless number of flights transporting cargo or ferrying passengers, all while earning experience points.
