Landing is a series of flight simulator video games by Taito. Almost all games were released for arcades, except the Jet de Go! Series released for PlayStation consoles.

They are amateur flight simulation arcade video games that run on the Taito Air System and use 3D polygon graphics. They simulate commercial airliners, while utilizing motion simulator cockpit arcade cabinets. Air Inferno (1990) is a spin-off 3D aerial firefighting helicopter simulation running on the same hardware.
