This weekend we presented FlightGear at FSweekend 2017, the world’s biggest flight simulation event, taking place at the Aviodrome, the wonderful aviation museum in Lelystad in the Netherlands!

And this year we’re not just presenting at our little booth, we also had the chance to give several talks on our simulator, using the Aviodrome’s huge movie screen (and the screen truely is absolutely massive - said to be the biggest screen in the Netherlands). Imagine running your favourite flight simulator on such a huge display! We introduced our open source project, the simulator, showed scenery, aircraft and more - like the FlightGear Space Shuttle…

One of the presentations covered the launch, engine failure and subsequent return to launch site of a Space Shuttle. Part of the presentation was recorded and can be seen below.
