AW446 PA18 20250927 PFF000 PAMR-5HO-PAMR 30 - fseigler - 09-28-2025
Just a quick personal flight from Merrill Field to Hope and back.
IRL…I’m traveling and don’t have a flight sim computer so this was an experiment to see if I could use X-Plane on my iPad and complete the whole process on my iPad.

hey Frank!
Now that was 1st - you broke some kind of AW record, for sure
How was that experience?
The screenshots look very sharp!

It is a bit difficult to fly while changing views and taking screenshots but it is doable. I usually end up climbing, diving, turning or some combination of those things. With more practice, it should get easier.

I am UTTERLY amazed that XP Plane flight sim platform can run on Ipad with crisp sharp screenshots and view.
Which XP are you referring to when using it on your Ipad?? XP-11 or XP-12?

..Frank,
Perhaps even you can get some sort of iPad game controller for that.
I tried X-Plane on my cell phone many moons ago perhaps around v8 , and it was fun - but never got to complete a flight ike you did

Aharon, it’s X-Plane 12 for iOS.
