Team
Not so long ago, we were 1 or 2... The team is slowly growing and every position is filled with skillful individuals! We are very proud to present you the names behind Flying Fries.
Lord Frites
Founder of Flying Fries. I discovered development/coding when I was 8 and digital painting and 3D when I was a teenager.
A few decades later, I'm finally putting these skills to good use!
Steiny
Self-taught flight model troublemaker wizard (who doesn't want to be given such a high title), with a penchant for mathematical precision and a dedication to solving the most complicated problems.
When he's not tweaking lift coefficients or debugging drag curves, Steiny can be found deep-diving into aerodynamics research papers, testing edge cases that nobody else thought of, and generally making sure every aircraft feels as close to the real thing as possible.
His contributions to Flying Fries have been invaluable, pushing the quality of our flight models to a level that rivals much larger studios.
Captain Kenobi
The David... Fincher of Flight Simulator. Captain Kenobi is passionate about cinematography and has the patience to craft the most elegant shots and video sequences. On his YouTube channel, he produces cinematic films, honest marketplace reviews, and sharp critiques. He always says what he thinks, no sugarcoating.
At Flying Fries, he's our communications guy: trailers, Facebook announcements, and one of the first people in the room when a new project is being brainstormed.
Pseud
In every good team, there is one person who can whisper to the computer's ears. This person is Pseud. A professional developer by trade, he focuses on WASM and HTML gauges and is already bringing new and innovative features to our aircraft.
His random mission generator for the Quasar is nothing short of incredible, and the EFB framework he built is, we believe, one of a kind. When he's not coding, you'll find him flying fighter jets through the Mach Loop in Wales.
Gregoire
A former Asobo employee who worked on Microsoft Flight Simulator's sound design, including the Bell 407. Gregoire is now offering his skills as a freelance sound designer to third-party developers.
At Flying Fries, he handles the complete overhaul of our existing sound packs and will be designing all future ones. Engines, cockpit, ambiance: he does it all. His latest masterclass, the XF-11 sound pack, speaks for itself.
The Community
Not to be corny, but let's not forget that without the ingenuity and generosity of a few people who didn't mind sharing their knowledge with the world, Flying Fries would have never existed.
Thank you TouchingCloud, Jonx, Mamu, and all the creators who continue to push the boundaries of Microsoft Flight Simulator!
