Mad Catz Flight Simulation

We received this announcement recently:

Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. (“Mad Catz”) (NYSE MKT: MCZ) announced ... that it will launch a new flight simulation experience entitled Combat Pilot in the summer of 2012.  Combat Pilot introduces multiplayer, military aviation and combat operations to the realistic world of flight simulation, where simulation enthusiasts from around the world can train, fly, fight and interact together.

Combat Pilot was developed by Mad Catz’ internal ThunderHawk Studios™ and represents the first ever interactive, multiplayer combat simulation built around Flight Simulator X™ from Microsoft® (sold separately).

Those entering the Combat Pilot universe must qualify to earn their wings in order to fly with others in the community.  The proprietary, multiplayer engine, as well as the regulated military environment, sets Combat Pilot apart from any other flight simulation experience.    

“We believe that Combat Pilot will prove to be an important destination for the flight simulation community to gather, interact, and share experiences,” said Darren Richardson, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. “Mad Catz’ Saitek™ brand and flight simulation is an important part of our company’s culture and Combat Pilot will allow the flight simulation community to come together and interact as never before.”
