What is
Aviation Chronicles?


Aviation Chronicles turns your flight simulator into a living, story-driven experience.

Each season follows the life of a single aircraft — from its first takeoff to its final landing — told through a series of immersive, episodic flights.

You don’t just fly missions. You fly history. One chapter at a time.

How it works


Basically, you press the big red button.

Big Red Button
C'mon, try it!

And then BAM!

One click, and you’re in the cockpit — right in the middle of the next chapter.

No menus, no setup screens. Just story, aircraft, and sky, ready for you to fly your part.

Start your story

Each season follows the life of a specific aircraft through time — from its first flight to its last.

Pick a season, browse episodes, and dive into the narrative.

Download the plugin — it just works

Our lightweight X-Plane plugin connects your sim to the story. It which episode you’re flying, sets everything up for you, and logs your flights automatically.

Fly the story

Each episode gives you a background story, a reason to fly, and a place to be. You take off, complete the flight in your sim, and the story moves forward based on your progress.

Live the journey

Watch the story unfold on your dashboard as your aircraft evolves over time. Every landing adds a new page to its history — and you’re the one writing it.

Featuring
the Robin DR400


Step into the cockpit of a Robin DR400 and relive its story from the very beginning.

From its first arrival at a French aeroclub in 1972, each episode lets you fly through the decades — across changing skies, pilots, and moments in history.

You’re not just flying a plane — you’re stepping into its story.

What does
our community say?


I always thought flying a plane was boring until I found out it’s basically a Netflix series now. Can’t wait for season 2: The Turbulence Strikes Back.

Aviation Chronicles really nailed it. Now I can experience the existential dread of a plane’s retirement… while I’m stuck at my desk. So relatable.

This isn’t just a simulator — it’s a telenovela with wings. Grab your tissues, folks, it’s about to get turbulent.

Because apparently, planes have better life stories than I do. Who knew flight sims needed plot twists?
