FAQ
Pilot Career Pro is a Windows add-on companion app for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024. It adds persistent pilot progression, mission generation, aircraft ownership, aircraft maintenance, simulator tracking, subscriber airline operations, and Pro AI dispatch services.
Yes. Pilot Career Pro has beta download paths for both Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
The Free tier includes the core local career loop, pilot progression, aircraft unlocks, mission generation, aircraft maintenance, theme choices, and simulator tracking. Pro is a paid subscription for cloud sync, AI dispatch, AI dispatcher voice, hired mechanics, flying clubs, airline operations, and other premium career tools.
Pro adds cloud progress sync, AI-assisted mission generation, AI dispatcher briefings and debriefs, AI-generated dispatcher voice with monthly AI credits, live-weather mission guidance, hired mechanics, route terrain context, flying clubs, airline operations, and other premium dispatch features.
Flying Clubs are Pro multiplayer career spaces with a club identity, owner and member roles, crew levels, a leaderboard, shared funds, shared fleet purchases, crew events, objectives, reputation, and operation history. Shared aircraft still require each member to meet their own aircraft unlocks.
Airline Operations are subscriber features for building a company identity, hiring AI pilots, dispatching company flights, reviewing credits earned from company operations, and authorizing AI pilot checkrides as the roster advances.
No. Pilot Career Pro is an independent companion app and add-on career layer. It is designed to give sim pilots a persistent career outside the built-in simulator mode.
Pilot Career Pro includes a beta add-on aircraft scanner for user-selected Community folders and filters aircraft opportunities by the active simulator edition and career state.
Free-tier progress is stored locally on the PC. Pro cloud sync is available for supported account sessions so progress can be backed by hosted services.
That usually means Microsoft App Installer is missing, outdated, blocked by policy, or the .appinstaller file association is broken. Install or update App Installer from Microsoft Store, then open the downloaded Pilot Career Pro appinstaller file again.
Signed-in beta testers can send bug reports and feature requests from inside the app, including optional screenshot images and available crash diagnostics.
