Expert Overview

I normally pick an airline route on a whim and forget about it after shutdown; having an employer’s network supply the roster gives that choice some welcome discipline. Airline mastery is the part I’d stick with, because it gives me a reason to keep flying for one carrier instead of chasing the next job. On a rostered flight, I opened the linked SimBrief briefing and checked the matching route on Jetstream’s map. That’s a useful connection between planning the trip and tracking it, without making me enter the route again. The career view also puts the fleet and job board within easy reach, which suits an app I’ll consult between flights. Paid XP boosts don’t appeal to me in a career built around earning promotions, but core play requires no purchase during the public alpha. I’d try that before spending anything. An account and internet connection are required, and alpha updates or bugs may affect progress. Also, the previewed map improvements aren’t in the download yet; don’t choose it for those visuals.

Jetstream gives Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 pilots an airline career that carries on between flights. Developed by Blue Matters Studio, this standalone Windows companion builds rosters from real airline route networks, grades your flying, and tracks promotion from Junior First Officer to Senior Captain.

Airline jobs and pilot progression

You can apply for roles across a catalog of more than 390 real-world airlines and over 90,000 routes. Your employer’s network supplies the roster; completed flights earn XP and virtual salary, with flight performance contributing to the rewards. There are five pilot ranks to work through.

Airline mastery runs alongside your rank, with Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Master tiers for each airline. Your pilot record keeps flight history, career progress, and country passport stamps together. World Events offer another way to choose a flight: find routes between event destinations and add them to your roster.

Live tracking, grading, and cabin audio

Flight map. Follow your route and aircraft telemetry, and see other active Jetstream pilots.
Performance review. Watch live grading during the flight, then examine a detailed debrief with a 0–100% result based on simulator telemetry.
SimBrief connection. Link your SimBrief Pilot ID to view your briefing and synchronize the matching flight’s route with the map.
Cabin announcements. Load your own audio into 11 announcement slots. Playback supports flight-phase triggers and manual controls.

Installing the Windows app

Jetstream requires Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), MSFS 2020 or 2024 installed on your PC, a Jetstream account, and an internet connection. The ZIP contains the official installer and a readme.

Download and extract the ZIP.
Run Jetstream-win-Setup.exe, then create an account or sign in.
Launch MSFS, select your career flight in Jetstream, and confirm that the simulator is connected.

Jetstream installs separately. Do not put it in the MSFS Community folder.

Public alpha and optional purchases

Core airline career play is free during the public alpha, with no purchase or subscription required. Optional in-app purchases cover historic airline content and progression items, including virtual credits, contract flights, networking actions, and XP boosts.

Development is ongoing. Features and pricing may change, and bugs or updates can affect your progress.

All nine screenshot previews show the actual native Jetstream app with sample pilot identities and flight data; the airline names are real. The dashboard and airline-career views show the shipping interface. But the map visuals and KLM logo alignment preview upcoming UI improvements that aren’t yet in the download.

Blue Matters Studio, LLC develops Jetstream independently of Microsoft, Asobo, and the airlines shown. Help is available through the Jetstream FAQ and support service, or by email at team@jetstream.today.
