www . FLIGHTS they can go to our community forum website and post a topic in the Support category to have their issues worked on and resolved .
Pilot training has been a big focus , especially with us continuing to grow as a community with new members joining everyday . Some have real world flight experience , while some have no flight experience but are major # avgeeks like the rest of us . They just love airplanes and have a passion for aviation . We have a couple of in-app tutorials that teach some basics and are available for anyone that downloads the simulator . In addition to these tutorials , we have a Tutorial category on our community forum website where members can access both written and video tutorials to help everyone learn about flying and even ATC . I try to post a new “ Pilot Training ” video tutorial every week on a Monday , that offers information and procedures on anything that may occur , from the time you spawn in , to the time you log out . These video tutorials can be found on the community forum website , as well as our official YouTube channel , our Facebook page , and also on Twitter . YouTube would probably be the quickest way to access all the videos . Eventually , we will have tutorials for every aircraft that is available in our fleet , as well as videos that will cover every aspect of flying and ATC training within the sim . We get messages daily from members requesting different types of tutorials which is a great way to see what our members are wanting and need to learn . ( Mark )
Can you tell us what sort of events are put in place to bring the community together , and on what basis that is done ? ( Jack )
We have 2 official events every week . Turbulent Tuesday , which is our Free Flight Server event where we can just fly , go crazy , and just have a fun time in different regions . It ’ s a great way to relieve the stress that Mondays usually bring . The other official event is our all server Friday Night Flight . This event is held every Friday and I usually try to feature an aircraft or airline . I also like to feature an event that happened in aviation history that we can implement with an airport , aircraft , or airline that we have in the simulator . We always try to make sure that we have live ATC available for the FNF events on the Advanced Server . At any given time during FNF , you can see anywhere from 50-70 different flights in the region . It can get crowded but it is a lot of fun .
We also will have random flash events where we will make an announcement about 30 minutes to an hour before the event and just do a flight from one field to another . There is usually a great turnout for these as well ! We certainly hope to grow these events even more over time . We post the information on all of our social media pages and of course on our community forum website . ( Mark )
What do you think is the best thing that the pilot community here offers new and current users , in terms of help and the community compared to those of other flight simulators ? ( Jack )
One thing that I absolutely love about this simulator , is that once we introduced Infinite Flight Live , it bridged the gaps across the globe . I mean , how cool is it that you can spawn at San Diego and be holding short for takeoff while an aircraft is landing that is being flown from someone in another country on the opposite side of the world ! Just think about that for one second ; I live in Alabama and could be flying an approach into Los Angeles right beside someone flying a parallel approach that could be
