About this game
Flotia is a world of floating islands, where the only way to reach other lands is by air.
The islands are powered by a naturally-occurring "anti-gravity iron", which the people of Flotia have extracted and used to power aircraft.

Every 10 years, the great "Sky Cannonball" race is held, promising vast richest to the winner, and the only way to win is through mastery of a top-class aircraft.
The young boy Tigaro has just turned 13, an age at which he is granted permission to leave his island and travel the skies.
He dreams of winning the Sky Cannonball, a feat which his father attempted, but who mysteriously vanished just shy of clinching victory 10 years prior, and Tigaro sets off to acquire an aircraft of his own and do what his father could not.
Perhaps along the way he will even learn the truth of his father's disappearance.
The Airs is a sky-faring RPG with racing and flight-sim elements.
The player directly controls the aircraft to travel between locations and during race sequences, and will encounter enemy craft which are fought in turn-based combat, while navigation on the islands is presented through a simple adventure-game style interface.
The player's craft can be upgraded using winnings to increase its maneuverability and offensive capabilities, granting access to new abilities in and out of combat and improving its odds at winning the great race.
Notably, there is a substantial deal of freedom in how the story unfolds, with the player's performance and popularity affecting the events that occur and ultimately the ending.
About PlayStation
The original PlayStation (1994) brought CD-based gaming and 3D graphics to the mainstream, ending Nintendo's console dominance of the previous two generations. It's now firmly in "retro collecting" territory: original jewel cases with intact manuals command a real premium over disc-only copies, and several RPGs from its later years (when Sony deliberately courted the genre) are among the most expensive commonly-collected games from the era.
Gamevaro tracks The Airs for PlayStation with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Airs to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS1 release dates back to 1999.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Airs, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
