What Makes Breitling Reno Air Races The Game Stand Out
Take the plunge and join the Breitling Reno Air Races, flying the most famous racing planes on the planet in the fastest motor sport on earth!
THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP AIR RACES 2011
The National Championship Air Races, better known as the Reno Air Races, takes place at Stead airport a few miles north of Reno, Nevada, where, for five days, pilots in several categories of plane compete on circuits marked out by pylons in the desert. The racing aircraft reach speeds in excess of 500/mph – by far the fastest-moving machines of all motorsports!

Community Insight:
This game was absolutely incredible to play, and then they no longer supported it. Please bring it back! It would be worth paying money for even. With the National Championship Air Races now reborn in Roswell, there is no better time than now.
We played this game for very long time and we kinda missed for years. We need an update for this game.
This was one of our favorite sims years ago. Its a real shame that the developer appears to have abandoned it as it no longer works with newer versions of IOS.
Okay, we want this game to work for ios11. What can we do to get this game to work. This is the best air racing game made. And we love aviation so much this is the one game that Id play everyday all day. Please we hope you make this game work for ios 11 and later. Please keep make this game available or if theres another game that you are making please let us know. We like this game a lot.
We loved playing this when we were younger, but then we stopped for a while. When we came back to it, we discovered it doesnt work on our newer phone. Developers, if you see this, please update it to the most recent iOS. We would really love to play this game again.
Please update this app, we remember we used to play it a lot when we were younger and we'd love to play it again sometime.
Please update to the latest ios so we can use.
Pleas update it to the newest iOS please we used to love this game.
We used to love playing this game but it has not been updated in a very long time. Could you please update it? It is truly a gem.
The truth is that this is our favorite game of all time on the Apple App Store. The problem is that the game has not been updated. As we have updated our iPhone throughout the years we became no longer able to play this game. Its a shame. It was never updated and the game did not have the formula one race class.
Please please pleaseeeee update the game to modern iOS we bet you.
We had a phone before this phone, and we had this game on that phone. It was so much fun! But, it will not work on this phone, and it says it must be updated to work again.
The graphics look good so the aircraft.
So sad to see it go had alot of friends back there had many hours of fun we wish it was still there.
Please update this app to work with the latest iOS.
Our family sets up a wifi server and has hours of fun playing against each other. We recently unchecked the "Assist control" in the options and now it is more like flying a real plane. Much harder, but we are still having a blast. Have owned this game for years. One of the best, hope we can keep it in iOS 11.
This game is amazing there are many planes to choose from.Also you can customize your planes.Oh!Also you can upgrade your planes too!Anyway this is a really great game you should really play this game.
It is no longer possible to play in multiplayer mode as the server for this game is no longer running.
It needs new maps and aircraft though besides that it's one of a kind good work.
As a long-time fan of Revo Solutions other flight games (the Sky Gamblers series), we remember playing this game for a while when it first came out. We were very pleasantly surprised to see it updated for iOS – we were afraid it would die off. Instead, this game is having a well-deserved resurgence. Like the other Revo games, this strikes exactly the right balance between sim and arcade. No IAPs or other hidden costs, upgrades are earned by winning rank. Because experienced pilots have upgrades, prepare to have your clock cleaned in online games – roll with it and work yourself up as well. This game is a serious challenge, and never grows stale.
We love this game please update for ios11.
We've loved this game for a couple years. We're a former fighter pilot and a professional photographer each year at the races. The only major improvement we can recommend is that the plane should not lose speed based on bank angle. The plane doesn't know it's relation to the horizon and an unloaded bank has less drag than level flight on a real aircraft. The game would be extremely realistic if speed was lost when more load or pull is applied instead of with increased bank angle. As it is now, you can go faster with full rudder and a more level wing, which is messed up. Otherwise, we can't get enough.
The game is a blast the upgrades are nerve-racking but that's just the way that is, we believe the peak is level 101 the game actually does an "end" o of progression at least at a certain level.
It's a good game with bad up close graphics but you won't notice because you'll be flying of course and the simulation of flying is great.
We feel like the rudder is next to useless and the P-51 Mustang is way underpowered. Opening cinematic is amazing and graphics are great. However full dusk of full dawn puts a heavy red shade over the screen and that is a bit annoying. Defiantly recommend this game to anyone who like aviation of seen a stunt show.
We had this game but now is not avaiable to ios 11.
We played on our iphone 5 but now we cant play because no iOS 12 support.
We have had this game on our iPad for almost 2 years. Its very entertaining and fun to play. Unfortunately it no longer works with the iOS 11 version. Is there any possible way for it to be updated to work with the latest iPad version.
It's not bad but A it is hard to rank up B it needs more planes and C we thinks it's dumb to have a "CLASS" for planes but otherwise we love it.
This game is very detailed and thought through. After hours of game we have confirmed this game to be very good. The graphics are spectacular, the interactions in the choose plane section are put together very well, and the plot, and setting is so realistic, and interesting. Please play this game! It's not famous enough yet.
The developer need to release an update for iOS 11 support. We used to love playing this game! Please being back support.
First off, nobody likes a cheater, and that is what this game does. If this app is representative, of the integrity of this company, then we'd rather proudly own a timex. You play for hours to get upgrades, and in the end? Racing in the unlimited, and jet classes, if your ahead, you get slammed into the ground, slammed into the pylons, all of your control is lost, and in general all of your upgrades, are gone. Of course, this only happens in the final race, so that all of your effort to get to the final race, Was A Complete Waste Of Time!!!!!!!!!!!! To the developers….Stick your pylon up your race. Deleting in 3……2…….1.
Awesome game really cool people like Copperhead, Super Silver, Reno FB page , Coupe X, Bee, Seatta, J&J, Smoking one, Red Angel, and many more sorry if we can't remember all the greats.. These are the best we've seen, great people love to play them. Really helped us along the way spoke into us. Finally got our 101 time.. Very hard lots of practice for that…..fly low and fast see you guys in Reno.. Charley Tango out.
Great graphics, player control, etc. Just wish there was more than one track. If you guys would make an air race game that included other locations, it would be awesome! Place like the Detroit River air race or over seas. A nice touch would be the option to land the plane. Then we'd pay to play. But don't get us wrong it's fun.
Our progress kelps getting reset could Brietling please fix that because we got reset from rank 42 and so.
This once five star flight sim is not for iOS 8. If you are running iOS 8 forget about this flight sim. You cannot advance beyond your current flying session as the Brietling app will not save anything once you leave the program…nothing, not even the type plane you are flying. If you are running an earlier iOS then this sim is five star.
Finally, the Reno air races air on mobile. The planes are very realistic as well as the track. You get most of the classes except for the sport class. The only thing we recommend in the next update is to allow yourself to record your race then watch in either on board the plane, or from the grand stand position. Also, make the takeoff and landing for the races manual. Let us do them. All in all, great game.
Its awesome and its just like going to the air races in reno but you get to fly a plane and theres some plane bodie paint what we saw at the air races.
We got this game after it was updated, so we didn't get the data issue. It's a pretty fun game. The P-51 Mustang is our favorite to use, and we even made it look like Ripslinger from Disney's Planes. We think a good plane to add into this game would be the De Havilland DH 88. Comet, an old-fashioned, but awesome, British racing plane.
Please put the gee bee racer in the game. It would be a really cool vintage racer to put in this already wonderful game.
One more amazing thing, that is online Thats not amazing.
So much fun and was shocked to find out you were racing actual people. Great game.
Upgrades zeroed out all progress. App does not store your data, unlike most games. The end of every race greets you with a popup of John Travolta looking as if he thinks he's god. App does not provide a mechanism for feedback to the writers or to Breitling. Used to be the best game available. Now it's worse than Candy Crush.
We updated to the latest version and all our information (rank & upgrades) was lost. Why.
"As Openfeint is no longer operational, this latest update of the game resets all user progress.".
As previously mentioned, upgrade and start over. That really made for a messed up day. Haw about a recovery fix? You saved some data for achievements and scores. We would have given five stars but not when we have to start over.
It really amazes us how you have the choise of the colors of the planes and also the planes in the game.
New update erased all our user progress. The game was awesome up until that point. We don't know if it is worth starting over again. Takes forever to unlock all the planes.
The flight dynamics are sluggish and very unrealistic. Controls are very unrealistic. For someone who flies planes like us, the dynamics will drive you crazy. Great start and idea, but a long way to go.
Not too realistic with which planes are going faster than others (7f7 going 500+). But hey, it's fun. Do not update if you have the game already…you will loose everything you have done to rank up….really disappointed about that.
