!!Tropes

* AcePilot: The point of career mode.
* ArtificialStupidity: The default AI knows two maneuvers: turn and dive. Made better by [[GameMod AI mods]].
* CoolPlane: The First World War gave us some of the first of these, and Rise of Flight dutifully tosses you the keys: the rakish rocket of a fighter that was the [[http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/5/2/9/1495925.jpg S.E.5a]], the graceful [[http://thevintageaviator.co.nz/files/images/albatros-gallery/preview/alb-02.preview.jpg Albatros]] series, and such behemoths as the Handley-Page O/400.
* DownloadableContent: Not only are all but two of the aircraft sold ''à la carte'', but an entirely new career map covering the English channel and supporting flying boats is in production.
* [[IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming Idiosyncratic Aircraft Naming]]: The Sopwith Aviation Company originally named its aircraft in a pedestrian, descriptive style (the Sopwith Type 806, for example, or the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Sopwith Two-Seat Scout]]). After the success of the Sopwith Pup and the Sopwith Camel, they [[ThrowItIn decided to run with it]], yielding a veritable menagerie of airplanes: the Dolphin, Snipe, Dragon, Swallow, Rhino, Hippo, Snail, and Wallaby, to name only a few. So far, only the Pup, Camel, and Dolphin have in-game representations; many of the others were one-off prototypes.
* [[JokeCharacter Joke Airplane]]: The Fokker Eindecker (based off a prewar air racer) and the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airco_DH.2 Airco D.H.2]] are pretty much only useful against each other, both being badly outmatched by the next aircraft to come along.
* NintendoHard: Some aircraft with powerful rotary engines (such as the famous Sopwith Camel and Fokker Triplane) have a nasty habit of spinning irrecoverably, the Gotha heavy bomber has a similar problem thanks to its propensity to yaw in the opposite direction of its bank, and the Sopwith Dolphin is easy to fly but will flip over on landing if it hits the slightest bump.
* PostProcessingVideoEffects: A tasteful example, where HDR and bloom are used but not overused.
