Which Flight Simulators and Aircraft Are Supported by Walker Air Transport?
Updated
Walker Air Transport supports three flight simulator platforms — X-Plane, Prepar3D, and Microsoft Flight Simulator — and offers 311 aircraft types with hand-crafted liveries for every sim. If you fly on any of those three platforms and want access to vintage through modern aircraft across cargo, charter, and scheduled operations, you're covered. If you fly on a different simulator, the site doesn't indicate support.
Supported Flight Simulators
The virtual airline explicitly names three platforms:
- X-Plane
- Prepar3D
- Microsoft Flight Simulator
Liveries are described as "hand-crafted for every sim," meaning each supported platform gets its own livery work rather than a single shared texture set. The site does not list specific version numbers (e.g., which X-Plane or MSFS release), so if you're on an older or newer build than expected, you'd need to confirm compatibility with the airline directly.
Aircraft: 311 Types, Vintage to Modern
The fleet spans 311 aircraft types, described as ranging from vintage to modern. That range matters for two reasons:
- Progression — the airline's history started with a single Cessna 172 Skyhawk in 1999, added a Beechcraft King Air 350 twin-turboprop, and expanded in 2019 into cargo and scheduled passenger service. The fleet reflects that arc.
- Choice within operations — you're not locked into one category of aircraft. The same 311-type pool feeds all three operation types.
Fleet Split by Operation
| Operation | Aircraft Count | Character |
|---|---|---|
| Cargo | 62 | Dedicated freighter fleet, real-world routes, short hops to transcontinental long-hauls |
| Charter | 215 | Pick your destination and fly when you please |
| Scheduled | 125 | Real-world routes from 75+ airlines, vintage to modern |
Note that these numbers overlap: the scheduled operation alone references "over 311 aircraft," and the total fleet is also 311 types. The counts per operation describe how many aircraft are available within that mode, not three separate non-overlapping fleets.
What This Means for Your Setup
You're a good fit if:
- You fly X-Plane, Prepar3D, or Microsoft Flight Simulator
- You want to switch between cargo, charter, and scheduled flying without changing airlines
- You like having a large aircraft pool (311 types) rather than a narrow type rating
You may need to check further if:
- You fly a simulator not listed above
- You need a specific aircraft type confirmed — the site gives totals and categories, not a full type-by-type list in the material available
- You're on a specific sim version and want to confirm livery compatibility
How to Verify Before Joining
- Confirm your simulator is one of the three named platforms.
- Browse the Full Fleet page on the site to check whether your preferred aircraft types appear.
- Look at the operation you want (Cargo, Charter, or Scheduled) and review its fleet list — each has a "View [Cargo/Charter/Scheduled] Fleet" entry point.
- If a specific type or sim version isn't clear, contact the airline before committing.
The airline reports 3,757 active pilots and 62 active flights at the time of the site content, so there's an active community to ask.
