Objectives
This website combines two of our favorite topics: aviation and computer flight simulations.
We initially created this website to share our flight module (which has been in development for several decades) and to discuss how you can use this module to simulate 3D flight on your computer. But, since you want something and somplace interesting to fly, this website also discusses how to create animated 3D aircraft and scenery.
We are using three.js to create the programs and Blender to create the models. Not only are these programs free, but once you have created your masterpiece, you can share the results over the internet.
This website also honors real-life aviators who often risked their lives in their enthusiasm for aviation.
