Whether you purchase Aerofly FS 2 from Steam, Aerosoft, or the Mac Store you will be pleased to know that there aren't many differences between versions, however, there are differences in the availability of DLC (download content) on each platform.

Go to the Aerofly FS 2 Store Page. You will need to install the free Steam Client prior to installing and running Aerofly FS 2.

Purchasing on Steam will provide you with the largest availability of DLC currently out.

Note- After purchasing and installing Aerofly FS 2 you should always download and install all of the free DLC available as some of this is needed to get the most out of your experience. You should also look at the ever growing library of high quality purchasable DLC as well.

Download additional DLC content by following these simple steps:

• Start your Steam client
• Open “Library” / “Games” and click on Aerofly FS 2
• Choose the DLC you wish to buy
• Add your DLC to the cart and check out
• The download starts immediately after payment receipt
• You can check the download progress under “Updates”

Note if your DLC download doesn't begin and you have the box checked sometimes Steam doesn't recognize this, simply uncheck the box then recheck again, your download should begin now.

When launching Aerofly FS 2 from Steam you have three options.

• Play Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator - This option will launch Aerofly FS 2 in normal 2D mode. Note - If you chose to create a desktop shortcut when installing Aerofly FS 2, you can also use the shortcut to launch in this mode.
• Launch Aerofly FS 2 VR (Oculus) in Oculus VR Mode - This option will launch Aerofly FS 2 in the Oculus Rift run engine. This is the optimal mode for users with the Oculus Rift VR headset.
• Launch Aerofly FS 2 VR (SteamVR) in Steam VR Mode - This mode will launch Aerofly FS 2 in Steam VR Mode for users with the HTC Vive VR headset. Note - Oculus Rift users can also use this mode however Oculus VR Mode is optimum.

At times, updates will be presented to you through the beta channel. This option allows for the community to “test out” the latest update to provide valuable feedback to the developers, while separating those that do not want to participate. You can always opt out of beta in the same way. Note - Many times both beta and regular channels are at the same version.

• Start your Steam client.
• Open “Library” / “Games” and right click
  on Aerofly FS 2.
• Open “properties” to see the window
  shown on the right
• Select the tab “Betas” and select for the beta status
• After that you will see [Beta] next to the game title.

If you don't use Steam or you want your own physical copy of Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator head over to the Aerosoft Shop where you have the option of purchasing as a DVD copy or direct download.

Note The latest DLC may not be available for the Aerosoft versions when released on Steam. We will make every effort to make these available for all non Steam copies.

By default the Aerofly FS installer creates two special start entries in the program group folder of the Windows start menu for you; one for Oculus VR and one for Steam VR. Use one of these to launch in VR mode.

Note You can create a desktop shortcut of the start menu option that you use for easier access to VR mode.
