Last week at the AVSIM
2007 Conference I received a Reader's Choice Award.
I would like to thank
my friend Frans Broekhuijsen, great organiser of the
Dutch Flight Simulator Events in the Aviodrome at
Lelystad for his nomination and all the AVSIM visitors
for voting on me. I feel very honoured and will most
certainly continue with this website. Please come back
for a major update before the end of the year.

Added nice overview of
the web statistics, based on the
NEDSTAT counter and statistics.
Go to the Miscellaneous Page
or follow this
direct link.
April 25, 2005
Renewed the
Introduction page and repaired some broken links.
Added a link to
Milehigh Productions.
Just as most other
leading FS organizations in The Netherlands
FS History
was present at the recent Dutch
National FS Event on April 16&17 at the
Aviodrome. Look here for a
small
impression.
March 30, 2005
Small facelift,
including a new logo, consistent with that of
The Old FS Vault.
Some small textual
corrections and aditions. New FlipAlbum "Manual-covers"
at the Gallery page.
February 20, 2005
Correction of the birth year of
Flight Simulator. From the old information I
was (mis)lead to believe that the first release of FS1
for the Apple II was in October 1979. However all
evidence now point to January 1980 for that first
release. So untill I receive real proof otherwise I will
take 1980 as the birth year of
FS. So I feel like I owe you an apology!
February 9, 2005
Update of Wanted List
and Reactions Pages. Most wanted: volumes 1 and 2 of
MicroWINGS Magazine.
November 25, 2004
This date marks the
start of a big upgrade of the total website. The first
changes can be found on the introductory page and the
news page. Look for the links to some visual additions.
The first is a draft
of a new
video
(in cooperation with Josef Havlik and based on an idea
by Marcus Thompson) about the development of Flight
Simulator over the years containing video-clips of all
relevant old versions. You will probably need a high
speed connection for the 95 Mb download. The second is a
copy of the
poster-session,
created for the Dutch FS weekend in the Aviodrome in
October 2004.
Then there is
interesting news about the ever so often requested
downloads of old FS versions, for which a new companion
site has been created: "The
Old FS Vault".
Look out for more
changes and updates before the end of the year. For more
information and other news see the
NEWS
page.
