Shed Flight Simulator: Do You Want To Captain The B737?

The Flight Simulator is now in basic manual operating mode, bar the occasional problems which
we are learning to correct.

The Core Operating Group (Calvin Munro, Mike Glasson, Tony Strickland and myself) are now looking to expand the Group to ensure we have a sufficient number of members who are capable of starting up, flying and shutting down the Sim. This will enable us to provide a broader service to the general Shed membership who are mainly interested in the occasional joy flight, as well as the proposed activity during the Royal Show.

The expanded Operating Group will then look to utilising the full capabilities of the Sim, such as
autopilot, active weather and aircraft movements, etc.  To this end the current Group will hold an information session in the main Meeting Room on Monday 22 July, starting at 9a m. We can conclude prior to morning tea (including scones!) and then walk down to the Sim for some real action.

If you have a keen interest in getting more involved in operating the Sim, rather than just a passing curiosity, we would welcome your attendance. Contact Nick Bagshaw (nickbagshaw44@gmail.com) if you want more information prior to the meeting.
