What Just Flight does
Just Flight is a UK-based developer and publisher of flight simulation add-ons, operating since 1995 from Huntingdon under the legal entity JustFlight London Ltd. The company designs, codes, and distributes study-level aircraft, scenery, and traffic add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020/2024, X-Plane 12, Prepar3D, and legacy platforms (FSX, FS2004). Its in-house developed products are built around custom-coded aircraft systems (AFCAS, ATS, FMS, TCAS, terrain-following radar), 8K PBR textures, Wwise sound packages, integrated EFB tablets with Navigraph and SimBrief integration, and flight models calibrated to within 95-100% of real-world performance data. Active in-development titles include the A300B4 Professional wide-body, LJ45 Professional business jet, F70/F100 Professional regional jet bundle, and Tornado GR1 military combat aircraft.
Beyond its own IP, Just Flight operates as a publishing and distribution platform for a roster of third-party studios including Black Square, MicroProse (Heritage Valor Collection), DC Designs, Aeroplane Heaven, Digital Aeronautics, Drzewiecki Design, NextGen Simulations, Flysimware, 29Palms, and Bluesky Hangar. Revenue is generated exclusively through one-time perpetual digital licenses sold via the company's own e-commerce storefront (justflight.com) and the MSFS Marketplace, with promotional discounting campaigns (Black Friday up to 85%). The customer base is B2C, targeting individual flight simulation enthusiasts ranging from casual hobbyists to dedicated 'rivet counters,' plus virtual airline operators and pilot trainees. A related brand, Just Trains, extends the same publishing model into the train simulation market via justtrains.net.

Just Flight competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- PMDG: PMDG develops study-level commercial aircraft add-ons (737, 777, 747) for Microsoft Flight Simulator with custom-coded avionics and flight models. It directly competes with Just Flight's 'Professional' tier on the same platforms and serves the same study-level enthusiast segment.
- Aerosoft: Aerosoft is a German flight simulation publisher offering aircraft, scenery, and airports for MSFS, X-Plane, and Prepar3D. It competes head-to-head with Just Flight across both in-house developed titles and third-party distribution, with comparable product breadth and pricing.
- QualityWings: QualityWings produces study-level Boeing 737 Ultimate and BAe 146 Professional for Prepar3D and MSFS, directly overlapping Just Flight's 'Professional' tier (including the 146 Professional) with custom-coded systems and complex avionics on the same platforms.
- ToLiss: ToLiss develops high-fidelity Airbus A319, A321, A340, and A330neo add-ons for MSFS and X-Plane with custom FMS and weather radar. It operates in the same study-level commercial aircraft segment on overlapping platforms as Just Flight.
- A2A Simulations: A2A Simulations produces general aviation and airliner add-ons for MSFS, X-Plane, and Prepar3D with a focus on realistic flight modeling and physics. It is comparable to Just Flight's GA and twin-piston offerings (e.g., Caravan, Baron, Bonanza, Duke).
- Carenado: Carenado designs general aviation aircraft add-ons for X-Plane, MSFS, and Prepar3D. Directly comparable to Just Flight's GA and trainer products (e.g., PA-28 Warrior, Tomahawk, Archer), sharing platforms and customer base.
- X-Crafts: X-Crafts develops study-level airliner and regional aircraft (e.g., ERJ-145, 737-X) for X-Plane, targeting the same enthusiast pilot segment on the same platform as Just Flight's X-Plane titles.
- FlightFactor: FlightFactor produces high-fidelity Airbus and Boeing aircraft add-ons (A320, 767, 757) for X-Plane 11/12 with custom FMS and systems modeling, comparable to Just Flight's X-Plane-compatible commercial and business jet catalog.
Broad incumbents
- Orbx: Orbx produces flight simulation scenery, airports, and aircraft for MSFS and X-Plane; it is now owned by Dovetail Games (publisher of Train Sim World — which competes with Just Flight's sister brand Just Trains). Comparable in catalog breadth, but with stronger emphasis on scenery and a wider multi-vertical portfolio.
Emerging players
- FlyByWire Simulations: FlyByWire Simulations is a community-led group producing the free A32NX and A380X for Microsoft Flight Simulator, demonstrating near-study-level fidelity without commercial pricing. It pressures price ceilings on Just Flight's premium add-ons within the same MSFS marketplace.
