[Update] Cross-Community Panel Discussion: Can Flight Sim Impact Real-World Aviation?

Update: The event has now been postponed. Here’s the official statement:

As a result of ongoing events in Ukraine and respecting the wishes of participants, the Cross-Community Panel Discussion originally scheduled for February 26 has been postponed.

Flight simulation is a worldwide hobby and passion. Unfortunately, the situation has had a direct impact on the lives of several of our planned participants and their teams. We cannot move forward with a panel discussion designed to celebrate our community in the shadow of current events.

Our thoughts are with those impacted by the crisis. We will work to reschedule the panel discussion for a future date.

In an emergency, could a flight simmer land an airliner? How is home flight simulation impacting real-world training today? And what more should we be doing?

Watch the live panel discussion on Saturday, February 26th at 20:00 GMT.
