  1. FrontierWings Is Now Live – A Different Way to Experience Bush Flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 After roughly six months of development, I’m excited to finally share that FrontierWings Early Access is now live. FrontierWings is a platform built around one specific idea: making bush flying in Microsoft Flight Simulator feel more structured, more meaningful, and more connected. For the past year, I’ve been organizing group bush flights through flightsimsafaris.com What started as a small experiment quickly showed me that there are quite a few people who enjoy this kind of flying — exploring remote regions together, flying low and slow, and sharing the experience. At the same time, I kept running into the same problem: there was no platform built specifically for the bush flying theme that felt right to me. Most VA or career tools are very complex systems with lots of moving parts and they are usually centered around airline-management, economy and fleets. I wanted something simpler. FrontierWings introduces a structured layer on top of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. You can take part in curated bush trips, follow dynamically generated routes, track your progress over time and develop your own bush flying profile to share with the world. Right now, FrontierWings focuses on a few core elements: Bush trips and routes all over the world, dynamically generated Career progression based on skill and effort Leaderboards for all kinds of statistics Monthly and special awards and milestones to chase Support for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 A dedicated Windows 10/11 client for mission tracking and upload This is just the beginning. I have plenty of ideas for where this could go next, especially when it comes to deeper community interaction and shared experiences — but I want to build this step by step, together with the people who actually use it. FrontierWings is available as a reasonably low priced, subscription-based service, with the goal of keeping it affordable while making long-term development sustainable. If you enjoy bush flying, exploration, and flying outside of the usual airline-style operations, this is for you. Head on over to https://www.frontierwings.eu and try it all out, no strings attached. I'll keep on posting new releases of the platform once they are available.
  2. I took a closer look at the Airvan from SWS - not without its quirks, but overall a great addon for people who value utility bush planes.
  3. I’ll post the occasional video here in this thread (instead of opening a new thread for each video), I try to keep the flicks coming as often as I can (with full time job, wife+kids, cat, house and all that beautiful stuff taking priority ) Hope you have a little bit of fun with this. Thanks! There’s the first one:
