FS2004 is alive and well at SCX

 Despite being over 20 years old, FS2004 still works fine on FSHub and contributes many hours to SCX's logbook.
I have been a fan of FS2004/FS9 since it released, and still have it installed on at least 2 of my PC's.  Below are some screenshots from a recent London Heathrow to Kennedy International flight in the 747-400, which included a go-around due to traffic on final approach.  For an old simulation, it still provides a great experience, especially on low-spec PC hardware, so if you are looking at getting into virtual aviation, but are on a very tight budget, FS9 could be your savior ;-)

Safely on the ground

FS9 was flown by keyboard, and remotely via Chrome Remote Desktop.   The host computer is a very old, very low spec small-form-factor desktop rescued from a skip, with only the on-board graphics, proving you don't have to spend a fortune to enjoy the flightsim hobby.

Details of this flight are available as an FSHub PIREP

Still playing around with FS9?  Don't want to, or can't upgrade? Want to fly for a VA which encourages FS9 pilots? Come join us at SCX!

SCX Livery out and about

 It's been really cool seeing the SCX livery out in the virtual world.  All of these screenshots have been shared by SCX pilots through their FSHub Pilot Reports.

Some of the sim software we use

 While organising my Steam Library recently I thought 'what a good way to showcase the wide range of software that we use'.  This is just a sample of the sims in my library which could be used here at Southern Charter, and as with everything here, it is limited only by your imagination!

You may also notice that the Steam 'tiles' feature in the updated webpage backround.  This is all part of trying to show more of what it is that SCX does.  There is an updated logo coming as well, so stay tuned for more styling updates!
