The AVSIM VFR Flight Center
Guest VFR Flights with X-Plane and Fly2
Today's
addition to the VFR Center is the first of what we hope to be a regular
feature. We received an e-mail from Chris, who lives in Belgium and who is
a regular visitor to the Avsim site, and the VFR Center. Chris is an avid
Fly!, Fly2 and X-Plane simmer and asked if we could include some of his flights
on the VFR Center. Since we have not yet established a good 'Guest
procedure' these first flights are a little bit off the now standard model that
we have adopted. Nevertheless we think it is a great opportunity to get more
diversity in our pages, in terms of authors and in terms of different platforms.
So, Chris, Thank You for your contribution
