June 18, 201015 yr What Android Applications are available for flight simulation? 10700k / Gigabyte 3060
June 19, 201015 yr I've searched the Market on my Evo 4G since I got it on the 4th of this month. Nada, zilch. Though I remember one Iphone/Ipod Touch app that listed default commands for FSX/FS9. :( It's not looking good as there's 35,000+ applications in the Market.That being said, I do have a few really great apps I use for flight planning/weather when I file in real life at airports other than home. Search with keywords aviation, aviation weather, flight plan, etc. I suppose those apps can come in handy in the simulator too, especially if you're using a weather program like my beloved Active Sky Evolution. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules
June 21, 201015 yr Having used both an iPhone 3G (soon to be iPhone 4) and a T-mobile G1, I can tell you that the App Store has a much better selections of (useful) FS apps in that it actually has some... :( . The makers of vroute, for instance, put out a decent VATSIM traffic viewer app, as did someone else (name of that app is "VATviewer" I believe).I know that doesn't help for Android, but that's just my experience.

June 23, 201015 yr Author What Android Applications are available for flight simulation?I eventually found a couple air traffic control games. Very primitive - you have to slide your finger across the screen to direct it. 10700k / Gigabyte 3060

July 9, 201015 yr X-plane is coming to Android. http://www.x-plane.com/pg_X-Plane_for_Android.htmlAbsolutely love my HTC Desire. RhydianI knew it had to be coming, especially with Android gaining so much power. I can't wait to see what they do with X-Plane on Android.

No idea how big the application will be. HTC need to update my Desire to Android 2.2 as soon as possible so I can stick it onto my SD card. It will probably eat up my internal phone memory otherwise. CheersRhydian
