The MSFS career
mode that never sleeps.

A living, multiplayer economy running on top of Microsoft Flight Simulator — where every flight your viewers make shapes a shared world in real time.

2,350+ Registered pilots
21,500+ Flights logged
10,000+ Real-world airports
Free To start — no credit card

MSFS finally has a career mode worth covering.

You already know the problem — the built-in career mode in Microsoft Flight Simulator is flat. OnAir and Air Hauler give you a solo progression, but it's still a game you play alone. Pilops is something different: a persistent, multiplayer economy that runs on top of MSFS. Every pilot's actions affect cargo prices, route availability, and market demand — for everyone, in real time. The world keeps moving while you sleep.

Real-time shared economy
Supply and demand are driven by all active pilots — not an algorithm. When your viewers flood a route, prices drop. That's emergent gameplay no other MSFS addon has.
10,000+ real airports
Cargo and passenger contracts at real-world airports across every continent. Bush strips to international hubs — every departure matters to the economy.
Fleet & hangar progression
Start with a Cessna 172. Buy hangars at strategic airports. Scale to jets and wide-body airliners. Build an airline with your viewers flying under the same banner.
Free to start — always
No paywall at the door. Account creation gives your viewers a Cessna 172 and their first mission immediately — no credit card, no friction, no barrier to entry.

From first flight to full airline — the progression loop.

Pilops runs alongside MSFS on your desktop. No performance impact, no sim modification. Here's what the actual experience looks like from start to scale.

Pilops flight planning
Step 01
Plan & dispatch

Pick your cargo. Build the most profitable route.

Every mission starts in the Pilops web app. You select your aircraft, drag-and-drop cargo contracts onto your manifest, and calculate fuel vs. payload tradeoffs. Contracts show origin, destination, weight, distance, and payout — market prices fluctuate based on what other pilots are flying right now. Spot an underserved route before anyone else does and you capture the premium.

Pilops fleet management
Step 02
Grow your fleet

From a single Cessna to a multi-aircraft operation.

Every completed flight earns Pilops Coins. Coins buy aircraft — from Cessnas and King Airs all the way up to Citation jets, Embraer regionals, Boeing 747s, and Airbus A380s. Each aircraft category unlocks at higher career levels, so there's always a visible next goal on the progression ladder. Aircraft have real maintenance cycles too: engine wear, tires, brakes — all tracked, all chargeable. Managing your fleet is half the game.

Every landing is also scored. Pilops captures real data from the simulator on touchdown — G-force, vertical speed, pitch and bank angles — and calculates a landing score for each flight. It's logged permanently in your flight history. Good landings, bad landings, everything on record.

Pilops airport economy
Step 03
Build infrastructure

Hangars, stands, and routes — your permanent footprint.

Beyond flying, you can lease stands at airports and create permanent routes between them. These routes don't just exist on a map — they define your operation's footprint. Each route establishes a fixed origin-destination pair that generates predictable cargo contracts at those airports, letting you build a consistent network instead of chasing the spot market every session. Buy hangars to anchor your fleet at strategic hubs, and your entire setup — routes, stands, hangars — becomes a deliberate infrastructure play. The map is territory. Choose wisely where you plant your flag.

There's more to explore than one video can cover.

Every feature below is a potential episode, short, or stream segment on its own. Pilops is dense — which makes it a high-longevity content topic.

To start flying

Six videos you could make this week.

These aren't invented hooks — they come directly from how real Pilops pilots talk about the game. Each one is a standalone story your audience will recognize and want to watch.

01
I Started With a Free Cessna 172. Here's What Happened 30 Days Later.
The classic progression arc — zero investment, maximum story. Create an account live, show the onboarding, choose a base airport, fly the first cargo mission. Then time-jump to where the character is 30 days later. The contrast between Day 1 (free Cessna, basic routes) and Day 30 (turboprop fleet, hangars in two hubs) tells the entire game loop in one video.
02
I Tried Pilops for the First Time — Let's Figure This Out Together.
A live or recorded first-session exploration — no script, no prior knowledge required. You open the app, create an account, pick a base airport, and discover what the system does in real time alongside your audience. The format works because Pilops has enough layers to reward genuine curiosity: cargo markets, fleet screens, live pilot maps, the economy mechanics — each one is a natural "wait, what's this?" moment. The discovery format turns the learning curve into entertainment.
03
Building a Virtual Airline With My Subscribers.
Create an airline inside Pilops and open it to your community. Set a commission rate, add a livery, start building a shared fleet. Subscribers join and fly under your airline's flag. Their flights generate income for the company treasury. Every subsequent update video ("the airline now has 50 aircraft, here's how we grew") is a natural sequel. This angle builds community engagement inside the product itself.
04
The Used Aircraft Market — Flipping Planes for Profit in MSFS.
Pilops has a real player-to-player aircraft marketplace. Aircraft sold by other pilots show their condition: engine cycles, tire wear, brake wear. The angle: buy a well-maintained aircraft below market price, operate it strategically, list it for profit. It's a business simulation angle that appeals to strategy viewers who may not be hardcore flight sim fans — and it's a hook that works as a short-form clip.
05
The Most Profitable Route in Pilops Right Now — And Why It Won't Last.
Pull up the cargo board, identify the highest-paying route available, and explain the economics: why it pays well, what happens if too many pilots start flying it, and how to stay ahead of market saturation. Publish the video, watch your audience actually fly the route, and watch the price shift. Follow up a week later with "what your viewers did to the market." This angle generates audience participation without you having to ask for it.
06
Pilops Beginner's Guide — Everything You Need to Start Your Career the Right Way.
A structured tutorial covering the full setup from zero: account creation, choosing a base airport (and why that decision is permanent), planning the first cargo mission, installing the desktop client alongside MSFS, and completing the first flight. Tutorial content performs consistently over time and converts at a higher rate than any other format — every new viewer who discovers Pilops through a recommendation will look for exactly this video. It's also where the affiliate link does its heaviest lifting, since the audience watching it is already decided on trying the product.
