    @SimpleStudent ok, it's either your internet or the game, disable your browser's antivirus (because it probably blocks it) or more.

    I play on PC. I have been able to download planes on ver 1.10 but after I updated it didn't want to download. Please help me on this as I really do want an F4-J Phantom II,
    V22 Osprey and so many other planes.

    I can help, maybe its the apps that take the space or the browser that blocks the app from downloading or trying disabling music or video replay.

    @CALVIN232 Might be a memory issue. Try disabling music and disabling Video Replay in the main menu and hopefully that will help to make the game a little more stable.

    @AndrewGarrison while you're here to save making another post could you help with iOS it seems to be crashing a lot well for me it does and it has caused me to lose a lot of nice planes because it sometimes crashes when I try to save it or post anything is there anything I can do?

    @jakecharlie When you download a plane from the website through the browser, it's just a *.splane file, which only contains the ID of the plane you want to download. This is then fed to the game which then makes another web request to download the actual plane data. I suspect that Windows is blocking SimplePlanes. You can add SimplePlanes as an allowed application. Instructions here.

    @jakecharlie I'm not an expert on how this game works on a computer, as I play on an IPad. I'll tag one of the developers and see if they can help

    If you are trying to download the planes through the simple planes game and it gives that error message thing, go to simple planes website go to the plane you want to download click that blue download button it should start to downloading a file when the file has downloaded click on it and it should open the game and you should have the plane. Sorry for possibly bad english
