Ok, so you found a bug!

Hi, I'm your host, Paul Wareing. I've been developing software since I was 11 years old. That was back in 1980. You can work the rest out for yourself.

Since I left university in 1991 I have been employed as an Electronics & Software Developer, Team Leader, and now as an Engineering Team Manager, developing code for a whole lot of medical instruments, a great stack of telecoms equipment, and now some fantastic educational devices.

Now don't get me wrong, I love my job, always have, always will, but up until a few years a go, pretty much all the stuff I'd ever developed was with other developers (the team), for use by other people (the customers) and to make some folks I don't know (the shareholders) a heap of cash. I decided I wanted to write some code, and create something useful, by myself and for myself. Just so happens that now I've finished version 1.0, I've decided to share it with you.

So I've had FSNightingale on my desk at home for about a year. It's an evenings and weekend job for me. It combines two things I love - writing code and flying the simulator.

Here's the catch. Any software developer will tell you, getting to version 1.0 of any project is the hardest version to release, see Rands 1.0. FSNightingale is at v1.1 soon after initial release.

FSNightingale Cessna 6 is just like any other software product. So if you find a bug, have any suggestions for new feature ideas for FSNightingale 2.0, or just fancy a good old chat about anything to do with software development for MS Flight Sim then please drop me an email.

Happy Landings,
Paul Wareing.
