Our History
MultiCrew was an idea coined by two high school students in late 2016 as a brand name to encompass some social media groups promoting shared cockpit flying. Starting out as a Facebook page, several iterations of a static website containing information and advice on shared cockpit were developed. The development of the MultiCrew Academy brought some basic community-organised training through shared cockpit, and we trialed the first version of our Copilot software.
We took a break in 2019, and in 2020 started development again, from scratch, this time fully open source. We are now working towards a public release of our Copilot software, which is currently in beta testing!

simmer, as well as VATSIM controller, his main motivation is to get more involvement in shared cockpit, as
