This is a forwarded message relating to the LinuxUser & Developer Expo on April 20-21, 2004 in London.

FlightGear will have a booth at this show, and in addition there will be a Navy Westland Wasp helicopter which will [hopofully] by outfitted so you can sit inside it and fly FlightGear.  The show organizers are going overboard to help us have a memorable presence for really no cost to our project (other than our volunteers have to get themselves to the show with a bit of their own "kit".)

I would like to extend a very big thank you to the LinuxUser Expo organizers, especially Brian Teeman, for all their help, and I would also like wish all our volunteers who will be at the show the very best of luck in pulling off their helo-mods!

Curt.

Subject: LinuxUser & Developer Expo 2004 - flying high!

+++Calling all high flyers!

Fancy flying around the world while sitting in a real Royal 
Navy Westland Wasp helicopter? Then visit the LinuxUser & 
Developer Expo at Olympia on 20 and 21 April where you can 
take to the skies - virtually if not literally - courtesy of 
the Fleet Air Arm Museum and FlightGear.org.

FlightGear is an Open Source, multi-platform, cooperative 
flight simulator development project. At the Expo, the 
Westland Wasp will be linked to a FlightGear simulator to 
demonstrate the flexibility of the FlightGear application, 
and allow visitors to try it first hand.

Elsewhere on the packed show floor, you'll be able to seek 
advice, see Linux in action and find out about the latest 
developments from over 70 Linux-oriented organisations, 
including IBM, Red Hat, Rackspace, SuSE, Intel, Novell, 
Sybase, SAP, Acucorp, Open Source Development Laboratories 
and OpenForum Europe.

Register for free before the show at www.linuxuserexpo.com 
(tickets cost £15 on the day) and you could win a unique 
Linux-powered Yopy PDA!

I look forward to seeing you there!
