FS Expo - worth it?

You are thinking of Matt Davies.

As for flightsim shows, I am praying to as many gods as I can (and possibly sending gifts to Scott @ JustFlight) that the UK event returns in 2024 🙏

You lucky guys! We don't have anything remotely similar down here in South America. I hope to be proved wrong...

I went and had a great time, I got to meet a lot of people. I did some seminars, I also drooled over all the great hardware out there. The best part is you can demo everything. The topping on the cake, I was a grand prize winner of a NLR sim pit. This is something I always dreamed about. If you can ever go you wont be disappointed and everybody there was happy and smiling and friendly. The only people I couldn't connect with were the Microsoft guys Jorg and Sebastian they seemed like rock stars.

I actually tried to trick Evan into telling me...as I was leaving the museum on Sunday I shook his hand and thanked him for all the effort and a great show (He really does go way above and beyond) and said "Great show Evan!  I'll see you next year aaaaaat...."  He said nice try. 🙂   Not sure if he even knows yet.  He mentioned that with this year's record-breaking attendance, our little niche hobby actually can entertain Convention Center - level venues...and he's going to look into that in next year's planning, so great things coming!

Nice good try it would be cool to see more vendors and simulators at the show. The last one I attended was way back in 2002 when it was held in Lake Tahoe.

I thought it was pretty packed with both.  We had a full A320 cockpit, an F18 setup that folks could demo lining up and launch off the catapult (DCS) with all the HOTAS controls, more VR headsets than I could count...motion and fixed based sims, the Asobo/MS, XPlane and Lockheed P3D teams were all there.  And when you were not geeking out about all the Sim-stuff....there was things like this all around to gawk at:

If anything, I was overwhelmed by too many things to look at. 🙂
