Simulator Technician / Developer

Are you interested in aviation and technology and perhaps sit at home flying a simulator? Do you want to take a step closer to reality and work more hands-on with real simulators? Then this could be something for you.
We are looking for someone who wants to help maintain and develop our flight simulators. You have good computer skills and experience with, for example, MS Flight Simulator, Prepar3D, X-Plane or DCS. If you have a grasp of programming or electronics, it is a plus, but not a requirement.
We usually meet one evening a week and work together without financial compensation in a nice, social environment where the interest in aviation is in focus.

​

We believe that you:

  • Like flight simulators and technology

  • Are social, committed and like working with others

  • Have good computer skills

  • Preferably have worked with code or electronics before

With us you will:

  • Join and work with advanced simulators

  • Learn new things and develop together with other enthusiasts

  • Take your interest in flying from the desk to something more realistic
