Maik Korolczuk, FS2Crew Team Member, RIP, German Wings Crash

The FS2Crew Team is in official mourning over the loss of fellow FS2Crew Team member, Maik Korolczuk, who died tragically in the recent German Wings crash in France.

 

Maik recently finished commercial pilot training and was working as cabin crew on board the ill fated flight.

 

Maik was very active with FS2Crew.

 

He was the European (German) First Officer voice for the PMDG 777 and Majestic Dash 8 versions of FS2Crew.

 

He was also an active beta tester for both products.

 

Next time you're flying with FS2Crew 777 or Dash 8 and you're using the European voice set, please take a moment to think of Maik.

While I never met Maik or even spoke with him, I cannot count the number of times his voice has guided me around the flight deck and made my awful flying somewhat bearable as a result. To lose someone so suddenly, so unexpectedly, is such an intense and painful loss.

 

My prayers are with his family, his friends and his colleagues.

Rest In Peace then soar with the Angels sir. You will be truly missed by so many.
