✦ AI summary

Final Approach: Pilot Edition puts you in the chase camera of various military and civilian aircraft as you navigate combat missions, emergency landings, and alien invasions across four detailed environments.

Time To Earn Your Wings
For players without VR Tracked Controllers, you now can play in the World of Final Approach! Take a seat, grab your gamepad, and seize control of the skies as you pilot an F16 through combat missions, navigate a commercial jet low on fuel through crowded airspace, or even fly a vintage Spitfire through dangerous terrains and obstacles, all from a "chase camera" point of view. Feel the wind rush at you with the roar of the engine and the push of the g-force. Use zoom points throughout the game to scale down to real world size, where you fight roaring fires, repair aircraft, fire the guns and missile launchers of battleships, take over baggage handling and solve challenging puzzles. Enabled for use with a gamepad controller, YOU the player pilot the aircraft through the world from this new and exciting perspective for an action-packed flying adventure. Get ready to perform incredible aerial feats, navigate dangerous terrain, and engage in full aerial combat to protect the world from the Alien Invasion.
Welcome to Final Approach: Pilot Edition!
NOTE: This is a seated VR game that requires a gamepad. Tracked game controllers are not supported in this version. Tracked controllers only work in the original Final Approach title.
The game play is from a "chase camera" point of view with more arcade style"Star Fox" game controls. You get to fly behind the aircraft, but not inside the cockpit.
Sense of Scale
Take in the incredible sense of scale as you soar over beautiful environments. Grab control of aircraft from the pilot’s seat as you balance between multiple challenges, piloting aircraft through the skies with urgent missions on the ground. The sky is full of aircraft of every kind, from F16s to Blackhawk Helicopters, WW2 Spitfires and barnstorming bi-wings. Airplanes on fire, commuter aircraft full of passengers low on fuel, mid-air collisions, emergency rescues, and military exercises all need your immediate attention!
Use zoom points throughout the game to scale down to real world size, where you fight roaring fires, repair aircraft, fire the guns and missile launchers of battleships, take over baggage handling and solve puzzles as you make your way through the game.

Not recommended Apr 2, 2023
[h1]Overall[/h1] I really enjoyed this one, but can't recommend it due to a couple of very big flaws. If it weren't for the camera tracking issues and the fact that the game was left unfinished, this would have been one of my favorite VR titles. Fixing just one of those would probably be enough to bump it up to a "recommended" rating. Another big reason to not recommend this title is that it is a near duplicate of the original, Final Approach. It comes down to this: [list] [*]Do you need to buy this game if you already have Final Approach? No. [*]Should you buy this instead of Final Approach if you have neither? I would lean towards the original Final Approach, but it depends on the gameplay style you want to experience. (more on that below) [*]Is it worth playing if you got it bundled for free with Final Approach? Sure [/list] On paper, the game is just about landing planes, but it's made quite broad with the unique locations, mini-games, mission variety, quality visuals and lively voice acting. [table] [tr] [th]Pros[/th] [th]Cons[/th] [/tr] [tr] [td]🟩 Beautiful visuals and sound, lots of tiny details 🟩 Variety of scenarios and mini-games 🟩 Simple, fun gameplay [/td] …

Nowhere near accurate plane physics; but great graphics and the planes are So cute in VR. A pleasant distraction when you want to play with planes without a fullblown sim.

I greatly enjoy the original Final Approach, and can appreciate what the dev did here - getting players more “into the world” by actually piloting the little planes. Great idea! That being said, I can’t quite get good control when in pilot mode – and the default camera mode is disorienting. I personally prefer the original Final Approach, which is a fantastic use of room scale and tracked motion controllers. But, seeing as the two come bundled together at no additional cost, I can’t mad. Thumbs: UP!

I think the people who say they get sick are just saying that just to bash the game. I think when ever a vr game comes out and it's not fpv people just write it off. Ultra wings, well fun, gets me sick at a point; this game dose not. I really don't understand all the hate. Do you like model planes and dioramas? As a kid did you have a toy planes that you would run around the house flying going "vroom" Are you at the age where it may seem a bit ridiculous to play with toys but you wish you could? Now you can with Final Approach pilot edition! After a 10 hour shift on your feet all day and you just want to come home and play an ez going fun and relaxing video game, well this my friend is it. I can't tell you how much I liked the game before but I didn't play it that much because you had to stand grab the plane tell it where to go. With this pilot edition it just makes it so much more fun. If you are just a fpv nut then stay away I guess but don't give it a thumbs down it really is a good game that will appeal to gamer's who like 3rd person vr.

Fun game for VR. Third person point of view while flying. You have a God like overview of the airport, then you look at the plane you want to fly and press a button to control it. Much like the Final Approach game, but you play seated with a controller.
