The Mid Atlantic Air Museum's prize-winning B-25J Mitchell, Briefing Time, has been faithfully replicated as an add-on package for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 by award-winning designers Bill Rambow, Jan Visser, Fred Banting, and Rob Young.

Together, these talented folks comprise "MAAM-SIM," an official arm of the Mid Atlantic Air Museum helping raise money for the museum's projects with the finest Microsoft Flight Simulator™ add-ons available anywhere -- featuring MAAM's own aircraft.

The group's previous rendition of the Museum's R4D Gooney Bird has been a tremendous hit, accruing numerous awards and raising over $100,000 since its release. The funds have gone toward a new engine for the Museum's Martin 404 and of course, getting the R4D back to flying status.

Although not officially released yet, MAAM-SIM's newest project, a magnificent rendering of MAAM's B-25 Mitchell bomber, Briefing Time, has already taken off with orders pouring in via the Museum's online store since it was made available there on February 18.

The aircraft's exterior and interior feature "extreme photo-realistic" textures derived from thousands of digital photographs. The stereo sounds of the mighty Wright Double-Cyclones were recorded in the real plane, and 'BT's flight performance has been painstakingly reproduced in the simulation's flight model so you can fly her "to the numbers," and MAAM-SIM even provides those... as it does the checklists; and the reference/specification pages are extremely detailed, covering every phase of flight in both normal and emergency operations.
