One of the best things about flight simulation is the huge community of people who are just as nerdy passionate about aviation as you! You’ll find a wealth of free resources available for new simmers, from news websites to product reviews to YouTube and Twitch streamers.

FSA Content Collaborators
On Twitch, YouTube, and other livestreaming platforms, you’ll find a growing community of “content creators”—experienced flight simmers and real pilots who share their expertise through videos and livestreams on a regular basis. In many cases, a content creator’s channel is much more than just the videos they publish; you’ll find forums, Discord groups, free resources, and lots more!
The list below represents streamers, vloggers, and other content creators who have worked with us here at FSA. We welcome anyone with an online presence dedicated to flight simulation or aviation to reach out to us.
