Simbitworld is back with a new version of A Pilot’s Life. The expansive virtual career simulation tool will soon see a whole new chapter come to life with a huge number of improvements and new features. Following an extensive development period, and learnings from the past 4 years of the original’s life cycle, A Pilot’s Life Chapter 2 will see simmers being able to build a whole new career in a competitive job market system and earn cash, hours, experience and more.
In the new Chapter, those who take up a new career in A Pilot’s Life will be able to search over 575 airlines based on over 280,000 real-world schedules (provided by VASchedules). This will allow simmers to take part in the new career system which is based on pilot rating and ranking. If you want to fly certain aircraft, you will need to ensure you have the right license for the job.
To keep track of progress, there is an all-new flight monitoring logic that will provide scoring and comprehensive flight reports to help improve your flying skills.
Simbitworld’s A Pilot’s Life Chapter 2 is currently in the final stages of development and will be soon available. Like the current version of A Pilot’s Life, simmers can use any simulator platform (P3D, XPL, MSFS) to track their virtual careers.
The final piece of news is that those who own the current v1 of A PIlot’s Life will be able to embark on Chapter 2 for a reduced price. You can currently take advantage of the sale that’s happening with the original A Pilot’s Life by picking it up for less than 9 Euros.
