## Review summary

Overall, users praise RFS for its realism, visuals, and ongoing updates, with many enjoying the broad aircraft lineup and airports. Repeated issues center on startup/loading problems (Pack 1491), stability/crashes after updates, and frustration with monetization (free version is too limited, many aircraft/features locked behind Pro). Users want more free content and essential features (ATC, additional aircraft) to improve value. If these issues are addressed, the app could attract more players and better reviews while preserving its depth and realism.

### Pros

- Realistic, immersive flight sim with smooth, visually clean graphics.
- Regular updates add new aircraft and airports, showing ongoing development.
- Large roster of aircraft and airports provides variety.
- Long-term value and satisfaction from a lengthy premium subscription (5+ years).

### Cons

- Persistent startup/loading problems (Pack #1491) preventing the game from opening.
- Post-update crashes and overall instability during flights.
- Free version is too limited; many aircraft/features are behind Pro/subscription (paywall).
- Demand for more free content and basic features (more aircraft and ATC) to improve value.
