I got an iPad Air for Christmas and of course had to search for everything aviation-related from the App Store right away. I found this nice flight sim called "Infinite Flight", which I can very much recommend. You can fly with mainly passenger jets and there's many more limitations mostly because of the limited platform, but I've still enjoyed it very much.
I think the hook for me is that you can plan flights, and make real, mainly VOR-based, IFR-flights, manage the autopilot and set waypoints etc. In addition, landing is actually quite challenging and requires you to stabilize the approach or else everything will fall apart very quickly.
Here's some pictures:

| Blue1's B717 is a nice, familiar addition to the fleet. |

| The cockpit of an ERJ-195. The instruments don't actually work but all important parameters are presented quite nicely otherwise. |

| A Norwegian B737-800 taking off from one of the airports in the Caribbean. |

| Quite a nice climb gradient here. |
Okay, now back to the books.. :)
