The email
End May: Like always these days it begins with an email. This one came from Mike deCastro, advertising manager of Flightsim.com (FSC):
Hello Ruud,
As a long-time supporter of FlightSim.Com, I'm sure you've been following developments as we advance toward the opening of the first annual International Flightsim Conference. If not, check out our coverage of it here:

We are proud to announce our support for, and participation in, this outstanding event. Organized by avid flightsimmer, real world pilot, travel entrepreneur and CEO of Holidayzone Ltd., Mark Silcock -- the Annual National European Flight Simulation Show will take place on the weekend of June 19-20th, in Europe's biggest holiday resort, Blackpool in the United Kingdom. The show boasts a long roster of a "Who's, Who" in flightsimming, aviation, the RAF, and much more. It features many exciting exhibits and special events. Over 10,000 people are expected to attend.
End of quote. Follows a request to support and add to the flightsim.com booth.
The Maestro
The idea of having a FScene2004 promotion video made for that show, was enthusiastically received by Mike.
Time is short. The idea is good. Action.
To make a long story -also- short, Daum-Studio (France) was found prepared to make a high quality
video for showing FScene's qualities on the big projection screen in the booth of Flightsim.com at the
Annual National European Flight Simulation Show.
The maker of the video lives in France, is -like all of us- a flightsim addict, ex real-live pilot and
producer of the best flightsim-video's i've ever seen.
