About Airplane Pilot
Airplane Pilot is a cheerful flying game for all ages. You're the captain of a little red plane with a spinning propeller, wearing a flying helmet, goggles and a yellow scarf that flaps in the wind. You fly over Egypt: the Nile, sailing boats and palm trees pass below you, with the pyramids, the Cairo Tower and a seaside lighthouse in the distance.
There's no shooting and no fighting here, just a calm flight. Collect golden stars for points and grab the green fuel cans, because the fuel gauge slowly runs down. If it runs out, the plane simply glides down and lands softly. Watch out for flocks of birds, paper planes, colorful balloons and grumpy grey clouds: every bump costs one of your three hearts.
The farther you fly, the more the sky changes from midday to sunset, the plane speeds up and more obstacles appear, but there's always a gap to fly through. Now and then a purple turbo shows up that pulls the stars straight to your plane. The game is free, runs on computers, phones and tablets with no download, and your longest flight is saved on your device.
How to play
- Press “Start” and the plane begins flying forward on its own.
- Climb and dive with the arrow keys, the mouse, or by dragging your finger on the screen.
- Fly through the stars to collect them. A big star is worth five.
- Pick up the green fuel cans before the fuel gauge runs empty.
- Dodge the birds, paper planes, balloons and grey clouds. You have 3 hearts.
- Try to fly as many kilometers as you can and beat your record.
Controls
| Keyboard | Arrow keys or W A S D: up and down to climb and dive, right to speed ahead a little and left to drop back. |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Move the mouse over the game and the plane gently flies toward it. |
| Touch | Put your finger anywhere on the screen and drag. The plane moves with your finger without your finger covering it. |
Tips to win
- Keep an eye on the fuel gauge at the top: when it turns red, head for the nearest can.
- Paper planes bob up and down, so slip past while they're heading the other way.
- Stay near the middle of the sky so you can reach any gap above or below quickly.
- Catch the purple turbo when lots of stars are close by to collect them all at once.
