Presenting VNASA vNorth American Space Agency
Coming in late fall this new venture presented by the founders of Strategic Air Mobility Command and Pan American Virtual Lite will debut. This new project which has been under development for several month will marry MSFS FS9 & FSX with a payware product Space Shuttle Mission 2007 .

You may chose just to go through the astronaut program to become eligible to be a shuttle pilot and you can make that decision as to whether you wish to invest in the space shuttle software or not.
We do have a minimum age requirement of 18 years of age. We check this via your Continue reading
