New Exhibitors Revealed
Earlier this week, we hosted the first exhibitor reveal trailer that featured over 60 confirmed sponsors and exhibitors. Since then, a handful of new ones have confirmed their attendance. Expect to see Flying Art, Gadgetly, Jurassic Jets, National STOL (in partnership with MOZA) and X-Plane.
“We are thrilled to be working with MOZA to provide this unique and interactive competition experience for attendees,” said Tom Wolf, Founder of National STOL. “Thanks to MOZA’s support, attendees will be able to compete against other eSTOL competitors and real-world short takeoff and landing pilots, in flight sim, at FlightSimExpo 2026! We’re also providing attendees with workshops and other engaging educational content throughout the show.”
#FSExpoFriday Schedule – First Details
#FSExpoFriday is the largest announcement platform for the newest flight simulation products from a range of developers. Over the years, it has become the place for the biggest reveals, and 2026 looks to do the same. At 12pm CDT, a large number of developers and exhibitors will take to the stage to share what is on the horizon for them.
Some of the names you can expect on stage include Thrustmaster, Sayintentions.AI, Combat Pilot, Navigraph, Virtual-Fly, X-Plane, SoFly, Meridian GMT, Microsoft Flight Simulator, and more. Across the afternoon, expect more than 30 exciting announcements.
“Being in the room when that new product drops or something goes live for sale is a completely surreal feeling as a flight simmer,” said Sean Doyle, a FlightSimExpo Volunteer who in 2026 will take the stage to represent JetCard, a new business aviation ecosystem built for MSFS and X-Plane. “Hearing the ooh’s, the clapping, and seeing the reactions in real time is something you just don’t get anywhere else. It’s so fascinating to hear from the people who make the add-ons we love.”
