Description: Explore the world`s first virtual reality-based aviation museum with tens of helicopters, aircraft and drones with 1:1 real-life-size accuracy. Designed by engineers with an aviation background, walk around the aircraft, climb up to the cockpits and experience the best-advanced jets in the world that have no chance to see in real life. From WWII planes to cutting-edge Stealth fighter jets we are covering more than 30 different airframe types including the AN-225 Mriya and F-35 Stealth Fighter Jet.
Review: ‘Air Museum VR’ is a virtual museum filled with 30 aircraft from jets and helicopters to the monsters of the skies like the Antonov AN-255 (you explore via teleport only with snap-turning, there are no movement options). While the virtual museum itself is pretty basic with only simple text into boards and no additional content the aircraft themselves look amazing in 1:1 scale and you can really get an appreciation for them and their size (especially the jetplanes and the bombers). This is an app for plane nerds and plane nerds only. There is no gameplay here, you don’t get to fly them, you get to appreciate them visually and even peek into the cockpits of some!
Given the effort made on the plane models, I do feel this is worth the money, but the museum itself could have done with more work and WAY more information and content on each of them than there already is. As a general rule, if you think you might enjoy this, you probably will. If you goto Aviation Museums in real life this is definitely for you.
