A few notes here (in Italian... but Google can translate):

On the App Store it's priced 8.99€.
As far as realism is concerned: the app gives you planes and gives you ace cards and skills, as the physical game does. Then it's up to you to decide how to match them, historically or not - as in the physical game.
When is the online world championship?
I raised the cross-promotion and "unlock" question with RdM at Ares, will advise when I get an answer. Really wish the PC and tablet/mobile versions could do cross-platform multiplayer...
I hope I can play it tomorrow. If not, I will cry.
We may need a subforum for WGF Online!
If there's a way to transfer ownership to Rob or Andrea, I might be able to get a Discord set up. Telegram I'm a little more wary of because of real-world personal info, which I guard at Nuclear Launch Codes level.
An interesting idea, but I guess far above our current skill (need Keith for such operation and he's "retired"). Let's work with sticky threads (that's something we can do right now) in Hobby or WGF section and we'll see if the need would be still present after few weeks.
Agreed Dan
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Had been thinking the same, shouldn’t be too tricky to work out how to do it...

Are you already able to access the game? My Steam says it's still not available...
Looks like it is already available on mobile (iOS at least) but not on PC...
Apple confirmed on FB (something about "I played several games from my bed), waiting for the rest
One other concern about spinning up a Steam group or Discord is that the Aerodrome name is trademarked, Keith has to pay a fee to use it under license for this site. If not for that and a few other questions, I could easily have both Steam and Discord groups set up for testing by end of next week.
The Aerodrome name is trademarked? Who holds the trademark? Who does he have to pay?

There may not actually be a fee, it may just be a handshake and goodwill, but Keith IS using another person's trademark with the holder's consent.

Expectations exceeded!!
It depends......
It is only illegal to PLAN an Immelmann whilst on fire (because of the compulsory subsequent Straight).
If you already have it planned, but are THEN set ablaze before you perform it, then the Immelmann itself is legal, and so is the subsequent Straight, but when you play the Straight you must take an 'A' Damage Card for performing a Straight whilst on fire.
Timing is everything!
Also note that, when using Ace Skills, a plane flown by an "Acrobatic Pilot" can choose any card to play immediately subsequent to the Immelmann, so he can play a Straight, and be set on fire during the shooting phase, as the third card of a given Turn: he can then legally plan an Immelmann as his first card of the next group of three, because his post-Immelmann 2nd card need not be an illegal Straight.
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Bloody great fun, shot Andrea down in my first on-line game, was second on the leaderboard behind Killer Moth when I called it a day. Worth every penny... great to see a number of familiar faces (well names) up amongst the clouds. Download and take off !!

I have my code from ARES but don't see where in checkout on steam where to put it. What did I miss?
Can imagine the chat would be tricky on a mobile, so installed mine on my iPad... works really well

From Google to you:-
How to activate a Steam Game Key/Code
Launch Steam and log into your account.
Go to Games then click on Activate a Product on Steam...
Click on "Next".
Click on "I agree".
Enter the code you purchased.
Go to your Steam Game Library, highlight the game, and click install.
Well I just flew off the mat in my first ever game! I left the turn too late in my Roland after successfully taking a picture in the Recon mission.
I keep forgetting how the K deck functions. Good fun though and I hit the defending Spad a few times and set him on fire.
I am convinced that Sniper is a necessity, if Ace Skills are allowed.
The boundaries may be too limited; SPAD's are hard to contain.
Maybe it is. For a dogfight. Bombing has larger area.
No idea why that is the case. The "Aerodrome" referred to there is a completely different game that has nothing to do with Wings of Glory. Linking to a trademark like "Wings of Glory" I could understand, but paying because you've used a word that is included in several other trademarks for various aerial activities seems somewhat ridiculous
Im with you Dave, cant see any issue.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to shoot down some balloons!
Have you slept since the launch Luke? You have seriously given the game some hammer, lol

It is getting very addictive....

You need to play this one Tim, it’s only £8 and you can’t spend more (yet)... lots of the gang have made an appearance
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
I guess Tim don't want to spend time, not money
Anyway, it is awesome
