Forge a career delivering cargo as a bush pilot, taking light aircraft to the farthest corners of the wilderness.



Your engine died over the mountains. Ice coats your wing tips and heavy cargo drags your tail. Your knuckles whiten on the control stick as you take a stomach-churning dive, prepping a deadstick landing. It’s life or death, but this is the stuff bush pilots are made of. You don’t panic — you ride the bastard down.

Set in a magnificent, treacherous world, Deadstick delivers the authentic bush pilot experience.

ROLEPLAY THE JOB OF A LIFETIME

• MISSIONS. Carve out your career as a bush pilot, choosing a range of cargo deliveries and recon missions.
  
• COMPANY MANAGEMENT. Manage your fledgling Flight & Delivery Service by weighing the risk and reward of each job, investing your earnings, and expanding over time.
  
• INVEST. Spend your earnings on upgrades, hangars, modifications and repairs. Invest in rural airports to improve their runways and add fuel pumps, salvage sites, cell towers and other facilities.
  
• REPUTATION. Earn a local reputation at each airport based on your safety, reliability, care and skill, unlocking more jobs. Just don’t crash and burn at a major airport or your bad rep could go global.
  
• PILOT’S CORNER. Personalize your Pilot's Corner with memorabilia, trophies, and photos you've captured on your adventures.

AUTHENTIC BUSH FLIGHT SIMULATION

• FLIGHT MODEL. Accurate to the last detail, from battery drain and torque to prop wash and p-factor.
  
• COCKPIT. Master a study-level cockpit with fully realized avionics, electrical loads and circuit breakers.
  
• PILOT MAP. Optimize your route based on distance, fuel, and weather forecasts.
  
• NAVIGATION TOOLS. Navigate manually with your map, compass, stopwatch and heading.
  
• FUEL MANAGEMENT. Balance necessary fuel volume with acceptable weight. An over-full tank on one wing could create a dangerous imbalance.
  
• MODIFICATIONS. Unlock hangars to upgrade your aircraft into the ultimate STOL workhorse, changing propellers for a faster cruise speed or enlarging tires for rough terrain.
  
• TECH LOG. Perform regular preflight checks and maintain your aircraft, or throw caution to the wind and save money.

• REALISTIC WEATHER. Maneuver through forceful windstorms, evade disaster in thick cloud cover, and contend with ice accumulation as you ascend into freezing temperatures.
  
• DIFFICULT TERRAIN. Contend with remote landing strips of grass, snow or gravel.
  
• DAMAGE MODEL. Deal with malfunction and emergencies, from worn-out tires to ripping off a wing. Lose engine power and deadstick your aircraft to safety.
