Version 1.1 (Apr 28, 2009)

- Cloudcell support

Flight Control now incorporates Firemint’s Cloudcell technology to enable many of the online features described below. Visit flightcontrol.cloudcell.com to explore all that you can do.

- Online scores

You can now submit your stats to our online scores web site. In the game, you will see a list of recent scores from people at a similar level playing in your general area (if you shared your location). As your score gets higher, you will obtain new online ranks - work your way up from Passenger to Cabin Crew, Pilot and eventually Astronaut! Progress through the ranks to play against people further and further away, until you are competing against players across the globe. The Flight Control web site at flightcontrol.cloudcell.com contains global stats (high scores, best average, most landings) as well as your personal Flight Controller profile.

- Google Maps support from the website

If you choose to share your location when uploading your stats, flightcontrol.cloudcell.com will show you scores in your general location (within 500m to protect your privacy). Your profile map will also display the closest 10 players at your rank. Top stats are also linked to Google maps, so now you can find out which destinations boast the best Flight Controllers!

- Twitter support (enabled from the website)

We couldn't help noticing how many people are Twittering their Flight Control scores. You can now choose to link to your Twitter account and let us tweet your new personal best scores for you!

- Quick save and resume

We apologise for the mayhem and destruction on your runways that was previously caused by interruptions such as incoming phone calls. Now, whenever Flight Control closes while you are playing, it automatically saves your game. When you next load Flight Control you can resume right where you left off.

- Assorted minor fixes

A number of small bugs and issues have been fixed.
