All Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Career Mode specializations and how to unlock them

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 It took significant steps forward from its predecessor by introducing a full-fledged Career Mode where you earn your wings before taking on special missions. However, certain requirements must be met during this process, and we have all the details you need.

Whether you want to be an aerial firefighter or a ferry passenger on long-distance journeys from one end of the world to another, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 offers it all. While it can be done freely in other modes, Career Mode allows you to start from the bottom and work your way up.

However, most of the jobs available require a variety of tasks to be performed, so we’ve created a handy guide with everything you need.

Career Mode Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 It starts with the very basics and works towards the first solo flight. Once completed, the Private Pilot License for Airplanes is unlocked and the first set of missions becomes available. From here it’s up to you to unlock the rest.

As you level up, more specializations become available, opening the door to more missions of various types. At the top of the pile is Cargo Transport – Heavy, which you need to be level 75 to unlock. Of course, you can always choose to do whatever you want outside of Career Mode.

We have divided the following sections into two tables; one of them covers Airplanes Flight Simulator 2024 and the other covers Rotorcraft.
