Hi,

I would like to know if anyone has seen an add-on for the Experimental Aircraft Association fly-in at OshKosh? I think that it would prove to be a valuable training tool for first-timers that fly to it. The Airventure webpage has specific guidelines for approaching the event (Ripon-Fisk-Whittman) and some very interesting pattern work and landing challenges.

I don't have any background in creating something like this from scratch, but I suspect that it should be an academic exercise if you already are familiar with the editing programs. The sim could use the already loaded a/c for traffic, but would be at an obviously higher density than is normally encountered. Other features of the sim could be the tower chatter, aircraft identification techniques and on-site aircraft camping.

Just a thought. Anyone up for the challenge?

Norman

I did the Google thing for "Flight simulator Airventure" and found the add-on that I was looking for.

I've installed in on ms FS2004 and have already tried it out. Works just fine!

Thanks for the info.

Over and out.

Also,It is easy to add some aircraft with FSSC.
