    Plus wifi multiplayer...listen to your own music and more. Plus the new airfield is sick. A new kind of plane has an already drawn path and the big jets come very fast.

    I know this may seem dumb, but can someone list me all the features of this game? Like how many maps, leaderboards etc. I would appreciate it :)

    The next update of Flight Control will add another brand new map, this time featuring the Australian Outback and a special guest appearance from Australia’s very own Royal Flying Doctor Service!

    The challenge of the Outback map is that on top of landing your aircraft as usual, every once in a while an emergency medical flight from the RFDS will appear on the screen. You will be able to see its flight path as a thick blue line, but you can’t delay or direct it – after all, this is an emergency! It’s your job to make sure all the other aircraft get out of the way. Everyone’s favourite Flying Girl is dressed for the occasion in an official RFDS uniform. You’ll also have the opportunity to sample some authentic Australian cuisine when you get a new personal best…

    We’ve extended multiplayer to let two people play together over a wireless network (as well as the existing Bluetooth multiplayer), and added a pause button to multiplayer games. If you’d like to listen to your own music while playing, you’ll be able to do that too as we’re adding in-game support for the iPod music library. You’ll still get the game’s sound effects, too. Finally, we’ve added support for backing up and transferring your high scores to a new device. If you sync to Cloudcell, but then lose your save game or do not back up to iTunes when changing devices, the next time you sync with your existing account you will have the option to overwrite your local data if the scores on the server are higher.

    I'm guessing wi-fi multiplayer both people have to be on the same network?

    The wi-fi does work very well, althougth you do have to be on the same network - but it does add another dimension to the game.

    Ya I agree, it's good if you happen to be playing with or against a person with a 2g phone that can't use Bluetooth.

    Great update but the best part of it which deserves a lot of credit is the backup gave save feature. Anyone who has lost all their game saves for whatever reason like myself when my faulty iphone was replaced should appreciate this. All devs should look at this system and use it, ideally this wouldn't be necessary if apple adopted a better backup solution though.
