Hey guys,

I was thinking about starting a Virtual Flight School for FSX, taking advantage of the new "Shared Cockpit" abilities. It would include all of the usual flights, from the first flight to the solo. I was thinking of starting with a few planes, but slowly expanding the list. My list so far includes:

AirCreation 582SL Ultralight

Cessna 172

Cessna 208 (Possible)

DG Flugzeugbau DG-808S Glider

DeHavilland Beaver (Possible)

Douglas DC-3 (Possible)

Mooney Bravo (Possible)

The ones listed as (Possible) are the ones that I am considering to include. The DC-3 is as big as I'd like to get. The ones not listed at (Possible) are the ones that will be there in the beginning. I am not home right now, but once I get home I will start working on it. If you would like to join, or want to help out as an Instructor Pilot or anything else, PM me or post here Wink.

High Flight Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious, burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high untresspassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God.&&

I'm quite happy to help out instructing.  I could teach basic flight skills on the Ultralight if you want me to.  Also, the Mooney Bravo would be good for ILS instruction, which I am capable at. 
I hope I can be of some help,
Cheers,
Mark

Hey guys,

I am so glad to see that all of you are interested in making this work Smiley. Our home field is LFHO in France. It is in a nice flat, open area that is perfect for glider training, or any training for that matter.

Alright boys, here is the lineup we have so far:

AirCreation 582SL Ultralight-Peanut1234-Basic Flight Skills

Cessna 172-mictheslik-Advanced Flight Skills

Cessna 208-Mees-Short Runway Skills

DG Flugzeugbau DG-808S Glider-sgt. donut-Gliding Skills

DeHavilland Beaver (No water in the area)

Baron 58-(Open)-Basic Twin Engine Flight Skills

Douglas DC-3-Blue Man-Advanced Twin Engine Flight Skills

Mooney Bravo-kingmarktheaviator-Basic ILS Skills

This is as many planes as I would like to have in the Club. Now, if there is more than one student interested in taking a class, we can have more pilots join up to add more than one of the same plane to the fleet Smiley.
