Flight sim convention comes to Minnesota in June

The event—which is in its seventh year and runs June 12 to 14 at the Saint Paul RiverCentre—is expected to draw more than 3,000 attendees and 70 exhibitors.

Each ticket includes access to hands-on exhibits featuring more than 60 simulators, seminars, workshops, and tours. Attendees can try the latest flight sim software—including Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and X-Plane 12—along with hardware, motion platforms, virtual reality systems, and other components.

New this year, the exhibit hall will feature two competition areas. National STOL will host a competition that lets attendees go head-to-head against other sim competitors and real-world pilots experienced in short takeoff and landing competition. The second, a Combat Arena, will offer air combat competitions, team operations, and airshow-style performances.
