We had the unique opportunity to take part in an approach to Nice RWY 22R on the jumpseat. Now we try to fly this approach in the simulator. Can we do it as well as a real pilot? Well - of course not :-) But it's an interesting attempt to f...

The year will soon be over. Take a look at what we found while tidying up.  The picture is from the first days of VIER IM POTT. We were young and enthusiastic back then. (Today we are older and enthusiastic.) In all these years it has never...

Long time no see! During the last months we have been working hard and now it's ready. Let us introduce you to our new Members Lounge. The Members Lounge contains detailed assembly instructions, videos, tutorials, success stories and m...

Did you know that we have more than 200 products and product variants on offer? This results in thousands of configuration options for private individuals, entertainment and non-qualified training. Quite confusing. With so many options, how do you fi...

Join us on our short flight into the night! We take off from Dubrovnik at dusk and fly south towards Corfu. After take-off, we enjoy the evening twilight. We relax for a while and forget the stress of everyday life. Then we need all our concentration...

After flying in an FFS, the dream of having a cockpit of my own was there. The home cockpit project began in February 2016 with an initial email to Christian. It quickly became clear that VIER IM POTT was exactly the right partner for such a pro...

In flight simulation, the environment is usually transmitted via a screen or TV monitors. This creates a physical effect. What is straight for one pilot is crooked for another. The pilot steers the aircraft in a dead straight line on the taxiway and ...

How can we fly smoothly with three projectors in MSFS2020? Without the latest graphics card and without becoming an expert in performance optimisation? Is that even possible? In the video, we test three tools that are easy to use and can be utilised ...

During computer maintenance and when we want to try something out, we usually have our projectors switched off to save power and wear and tear. However, since switching our visual system to the new projectors, we have had an annoying problem. If the ...

Today's flight takes us from Dresden to Vienna. We want to visit our customer and friend Wolfgang, who has realised an impressive project at his home. When we landed in Vienna, we noticed something unusual that we will have to think about over t...

During the last days we have replaced the eight year old visual of our A320 flight simulator with a new 4K projection system. This is our first test flight. Ladies and Gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts! We take-off for a first f...

Warping is the most demanding part of the conversion in terms of software. We use Immersive Designer Pro for planning with our customers because it is easy to calculate various scenarios in advance. This software is usually too expensive and too diff...

New day. Firstly, we prepare the installation of the projectors. To do this, we first fit the projector holders to the projectors. Then the first projector is mounted. One thing we can say in advance. The overhead work left us with sore muscles the n...

The preparations have been finalised. We have bought three new projectors. Optoma with 4K resolution. You have to realise that we have a very special installation situation in Bottrop. Like many others, we have space problems in the showroom. That's ...

We fly (virtually, of course) from Finkenwerder to Dresden to prepare the next project. But first we enjoy the beautiful winter weather. Clear air, good visibility and a route that more or less always runs straight ahead. In the meantime, my wife Sil...

Installation Installing the Microsoft Flight Simulator MSFS2020 is relatively simple. We decided to stream the scenery via the internet, which is no problem if you have a reasonably good internet bandwidth. There are a few points to bear in mind...

We are a little excited. Today we're off on our first flight around the world. Our destination today is Finkenwerder. Hamburg-Finkenwerder airfield (IATA code: XFW, ICAO code: EDHI) is a special airfield in the south-west of Hamburg and part of the A...

Flying is incredibly exciting and there are many fascinating places to go. We will fly eastwards in the A320 until we arrive back at our starting point. The flight distances will be around one hour per leg - where feasible. Fly with us...

Here's a short video from our new customer Marcus. He took off on his first night flight with an expert and we were able to join him on YouTube. The complete installation has recently been completed and VATSIM is already up and running...
