Can You Land? is a 3D landing simulator that runs in your browser. Each approach lasts about 30 seconds; the controls are fully manual, and your score from 0 to 100 locks in the moment the wheels touch the runway.
Can You Land? Guide: Nail Every Approach
You start with the Airbus A320 and judge your own descent angle. Watch the PAPI lights beside the runway. Two white and two red lights mean the approach angle is correct. Keep the wings level, hold the runway centerline, lower the landing gear early, then touch down near the aiming markers about 300 meters past the threshold. Your score combines sink rate, touchdown position, centerline offset and bank angle.
PC controls
- Mouse drag or WASD, arrow keys: pitch and bank
- G: raise or lower the landing gear
- Space or Enter: start the next approach
- Tab: cancel the flight and return to the menu
- Mobile: touch and drag across the windscreen.
Flying tips
- Drop the gear early, since it takes a few seconds to fully extend
- Hold two white and two red, and fix any drift with light inputs
- Raise the nose gently just before touchdown to cut the descent rate
- Crosswinds push you sideways, so keep adjusting your alignment and compensate for the crosswind all the way down
Why Streaks Change Everything
Consecutive successful landings multiply your coin payout, so a botched approach in the middle of a streak really hurts. Coins unlock six more aircraft: Boeing 747, Concorde, Gulfstream G650, Airbus A380, F/A-18 Hornet and SR-71 Blackbird. Heavier or faster planes are harder to fly but can pay more. Daily challenges put everyone in the same aircraft, airport and weather, so the leaderboard stays fair. In my view, the replay camera is the fastest way to learn. The external view shows right away whether you drifted off the centerline or hit the runway too hard.
Thirty seconds, one runway, no autopilot: Can You Land? is waiting for your approach.
