The aircraft catalog lists every aircraft type you can buy or rent in Pilops: 106 aircraft in four categories, from a Piper Cub to an Airbus A380.
Categories
| Category | Aircraft | Fuel | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Propellers | 37 | AvGas (a few Jet-A1 diesels) | First aircraft, short hops, small airports |
| Turboprops | 28 | Jet-A1 (classic transports on AvGas) | Regional cargo and passengers |
| Jets | 13 | Jet-A1 | Fast passenger runs between larger airports |
| Airliners | 28 | Jet-A1 | High-volume routes between large airports |
How to read the tables
- Pax
- Seats available for passengers. Passenger jobs need one seat per passenger.
- Cargo (lbs)
- The useful load: the aircraft's maximum weight minus its empty weight. Cargo, passengers and fuel all come out of this budget, so a full tank leaves less room for payload. See Planning a flight.
- Fuel capacity (lbs)
- How much fuel the tanks hold, in pounds. The app shows fuel in the weight unit you chose in Settings.
- Fuel type
- AvGas or Jet-A1. The price per pound differs. See Fuel.
- Max speed (kt)
- The reference speed used by Pilops. A flight whose average speed is more than 1.5 times this value is rejected, so it only matters if you fly something that does not match the aircraft type.
- Buy / Rent
- Purchase price in Pilops Coins (P$) or Pilop Points (Pp$), and the 30-day rental price in either currency. A dash means the aircraft is not offered in that currency. Prices are the 2026 values and can change; the app always shows the current one.
The aircraft data was reviewed in August 2026 against real-world sources so that payloads match the real aircraft.
Matching the simulator aircraft
When you connect the Pilops Client, it checks that the aircraft loaded in the simulator matches the type of your Pilops flight by its name. Default and third-party add-ons both work as long as the name identifies the same type. If the client says you selected the wrong aircraft, it tells you which type it expected.
