Hello everyone,

It is rare that I take pen in hand this kind but the older of you may remember him, Guy Daems unfortunately left us as a result of cancer.

For those who do not know Guy Daems, besides being an airline pilot, with Jan Moons was one of the first to suggest a commercial plane for Flight Simulator with a realistic flight model (whose characteristics flight line with those of the OM).

At the time, Eric Ernst (boss of the team who released the 767 for FS2000 PIC) had also contacted about the flight model as the 757 Project Freeware was the only "tolerate" a landing automatic with the 767 PIC panel. The approach of Guy Daems, Jan Moons, I had taken was completely innovative for its time.

I regularly see many pictures from the ground or the most beautiful office in the world on Airliners.net for Guy Daems was also spotter. He was a quiet in the simulation world and if FS5 from the realism of add-ons for Flight Simulator has evolved, Guy Daems for me among those who have shown the way ...
