Hi,

Flight1 is looking for a group of beta testers for a currently experimental project (initially for MSFS). This request for testers is a bit unique as this project focuses on elements which are different from products we have previous released.

To participate, you would need to enjoy these elements:

  1. VFR flying… including low and slow at times.
  2. World geography – Physical, Regional, Human.
  3. World history (in general – not focused on one element).
  4. Flying in different weather scenarios.

Some elements work in VR mode. If you use VR headsets, you can enjoy this product.

If you think this would be of interest to you, please private message me via this forum, or reply here and I can reach out to you via the forum. We will need to know who you are (either as a Flight1 customer or via the SimForums site).

Here are some pictures that do not tell a whole lot of the story, but they were taken during testing…

Hi John,

Yes... It works with P3D also... but testing will be for MSFS initially. I will update the post!

I only have an hour or so with MSFS but am willing to help test if you think that is okay. I can certainly help test the P3D version if needed and when you get to it. You have my contact information.

OK John... I'll add you to the list!

Advanced understanding of MSFS is not important. Your hour should be enough Smile

When you are wanting a beta tester in P3D v 5.3+, I'd love to contribute.  I'm not yet sold on dedicating my flying on MSFS, so about 90% of my current flying has been in the F1 Super King Air in P3D.  I'm ready for a new twist if you are still looking for crash test dummies in the near future. Wink

Best, Don

Heya, happy to beta test if you need, I have a good amount of experience flying in MSFS and enjoy the items you have listed, alongside commercial flight aspects. Specifically weather is my main interest in the list.

Just seen this, I am an avid simmer and only use MSFS now. I'm retired and fly every day, and stream at least one flight regularly. I have beta tested for aerosoft, ProATC. I fly both VFR and IR and would be happy to help.

I would be interested in beta testing.  I have participated in several beta tests for Microsoft and other companies.  I have 30 years' experience in Microsoft Flight Simulation and already use about 90bg of addons. I have used many of your products in the past as well, so I am familiar with your systems.  

Cheers

Hi,
Can I be added to the potential group. I have 400 hours on MSFS2020, with beta testing in both flat screen and VR.
Thanks

Hello Steve!! 

Really interested in testing this promising add on!)
I`ve got SPP rating in IVAO, so my knowledges about VFR flight are really good. Also, there are many aircrafts for GA flights in my hangar. I`ll be waiting for your response 

Best regards
