Air Postal

The game begins at the dawn of the 1920s, and the player-pilots aim to open the first air routes. To do this, they have at their disposal only a few military biplanes from the First World War, such as the Breguet XIV, recycled into dusty transport planes. These machines were often outdated and underpowered, forcing pilots to fly only on the shortest routes. Then, thanks to the technological and commercial development, they will have at their disposal more and more efficient aircrafts, and will be able to venture on more and more important distances. Then will come the time to try to accomplish great firsts, such as crossing the Atlantic or crossing the Andes, with the ultimate goal of an aerial tour of the globe!

The Air Postal game is built around a solid historical context highlighting the pilots of the time, men and women with incredible destinies, as well as the most famous civilian airplanes of the 20s and 30s... some of which are still flying today, nearly a century after having written the most beautiful pages of aviation history in the sky! Finally a game that deals with the peaceful, technological and heroic aspects of the world of aeronautics, and allows you to relive an epic that has become mythical: the fabulous flight of air transport.
