The upcoming sixth annual FlightSimExpo aims to highlight the growing sophistication of hobbyist flight simulators and the low cost of increasingly complex equipment. It will be held at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence from June 27 to 29.

According to show organizer and airline pilot Evan Reiter, visitors will see more virtual reality tools and reasonably priced peripherals for their simulator setups. For example, first-time exhibitor DOF Reality is showing motion platforms targeting home simulator builders. “Force feedback [was] a popular topic years ago that fell out of favor but has now come back in a bigger way,” Reiter told AIN. Also popular are G1000 panels, FMS control-display units, and autopilot panels.
