What's New

July 26, 2019 - Tutor first flight

I have added animated landing gear, animated all the control surfaces, added some cockpit details, sounds and lighting effects, and written up a basic FDM. Next will be adding custom flight and engine instruments to the panel.

Jan 25, 2015 - New administrator

Bob Maheu has moved on after initially developing this site and maintaining it for the past several years. He has handed ownership of the site to me and I will maintain it for the forseeable future. Over the next few months, I will migrate the site away from Google sites and redevelop it. Please let me know if there is anything you would like to see on the new site and I will try to incorporate it. Drop me a line at owenpsmith@shaw.ca.
