The FS Magazine (proper spelling FS MAGAZINE - journal for flight simulation ) is a bi-monthly German-language journal on flight simulation . It has been published since December 2005 and is the only German-language specialist magazine for flight simulation on PC and Mac. In October 2005, the free so-called zero number was presented to the public during the 3rd flight simulator conference.

content
The main topic is the simulation of civil aviation based on Microsoft Flight Simulator 10, the current versions of the Prepar3D, the Aerofly FS 2 and the X-Plane . In addition to announcements of dates and short messages on software and hardware innovations and current affairs from the scene, reports are made on the entire spectrum of the flight simulation hobby, including newly released scenarios, aircraft and tools. In addition, basic knowledge is imparted, post-flight suggestions are given in the "From - over - to" section, and event reviews and excursion tips, for example on simulator cockpit operators, are given. Reports, hardware presentations and interviews as well as occasional reports on military and glider flight simulations round off the issues.
