As others have mentioned beta testing is not something where you just use the product for fun. The obvious errors will generally have already been fixed through internal quality control. Using the product in a different environment and finding bugs in more through use is really what you would do.

 

If anyone is interested in beta testing there are many companies that have beta websites through which you can send applications. For example, if you want to beta test software most anti-virus companies have fairly open beta testing though you will still be under NDA. Also PC hardware manufactures do external beta's but it is much harder to be selected.

We're only entertaining applications from real life 777 pilots, maintenance personnel, simulator techs, etc right now - people with real life experience on the aircraft. Our wider test team (if anyone is added) will be comprised of simmers who have made an impression on us in the forum through their knowledge, civility, and general helpfulness with others. We aren't going to take someone unknown to us who just asks out of the blue to be a tester.
