А new era has come to Airport City!
For the first time, you’re able to visit the most remote and beautiful places on the planet such as waterfalls, mountains, and natural reserves by organizing heli-sightseeing tours.
Attract tourists to your city with new landmarks while developing the airport infrastructure to support your heliport: build a new terminal, helipads, and factories to produce helicopter fuel and spare parts!

New adventures, aircrafts, and buildings await you on level 8.
