If you’re reading this article, it’s almost certain that you’re either an accomplished flight simulation pilot or at the very least, interested in grabbing a yoke, taking to the skies and begin taking your first flights into the incredible world of aviation and flight simulation.
Flight sim software has been around virtually as long as computers have been available for commercial use. In many ways, aviation is the ultimate ‘wish fulfilment’ pastime, a chance for regular folks who always dreamed of flight, to experience what it’s like to actually board a plane, chart a course and navigate safely to their chosen destination.
Thanks to the ever-marching advancements in technology, so much has changed in the decades since the first flight simulation software. Today, enthusiasts get to experience a simulation so real, at times, it’s virtually indistinguishable from reality, blurring the lines between simulation and the real thing. Indeed, when combined with the Honeycomb Aeronautical range of world-leading hardware, it’s absolutely feasible to train oneself on how to fly a real aircraft without ever leaving the comfort of your home!
The range of Honeycomb Aeronautical hardware is simply as realistic as they come. No mere game controller, Honeycomb’s products are based on real components found in aircraft and designed in cooperation with genuine pilots to deliver not only the look, but feel, feedback and accuracy, like no other brand.
With this in mind, Honeycomb Aeronautical is excited to announce, ‘Honeycomb Horizon’, a new initiative designed to empower trainee pilots to hone their skills in an accurate and practical way. Designed to demonstrate Honeycomb’s steadfast commitment to the community, and offer something back during these challenging times, the Honeycomb Horizons concept provides preferential pricing to would be aviators, encouraging those wishing to train to a professional level to do so at their own pace and in their own time.
If you’re a studying flight and affiliated with flight schools, high schools, universities or youth aviation organizations, you could be entitled to a 15% discount on the Honeycomb Aeronautical range of hardware, when purchased directly through our website or one of Honeycomb’s official partners! Right now, our partners are Sporty’s Pilot Shop in the USA (www.sportys.com) and VIP Pilot Center in Canada (www.vippilot.com). Stay tuned to our website and social channels for further partner details.
We hope this small gesture will go a long way in growing the audience for Flight Simulation, a pastime that means so much to so many, and for whom some would like to take further, pursuing a career in aviation.
We see the Honeycomb Horizons initiative as an opportunity to reward those serious about flight and we look forward to more announcements in the future. If you would like to find out more about the Honeycomb Horizons initiative or sign up for yourself, please visit: www.flyhoneycomb.com/horizon
