FSAcademy – Mission Pack “Interceptor” Preview

Soon a new mission pack (30 mission) from FSAcademy. As the sky darkens and the horizon fades, you find yourself at the mercy of the elements, unless you unlock the hidden world of instrument flight.

FS Academy – INTERCEPTOR will guide you beyond the mist, revealing the invisible pathways that pilots rely on to navigate the skies with precision and confidence.

Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) empower you to keep the show on the road, interpreting the silent language of your instrumentation, which will become your eyes and ears.

From legacy gauges to modern glass cockpits, you’ll build IFR skills step by step, just like real-world pilots transitioning to advanced avionics.. Tune in to a range of navigation aids, including VOR, NDB and GPS to find your way aloft, before returning to Earth under the guidance of radio beams that direct you towards a safe touchdown.

INTERCEPTOR is an all-new, 30-mission training pack designed to get you flying IFR like a pro. Created by a real-world airline captain, this is the most authentic and immersive instrument flight experience available for Flight Simulator.

And the software will be later on available via simMarket.
