We're all about bringing people from the aviation industry and the flight simulation community together to enjoy flight simulators. We are a community-driven organisation, which specialises in shared cockpit flying, training and support.

MultiCrew Copilot

Copilot, is a tool to help you organise and dispatch shared cockpit flights. It will help you find a copilot for your sim and aircraft with similar addons and preferences. The tool also helps you manage your flight planning, and we have a Discord server you can use for VoIP comms.

At the moment, Copilot is in closed beta, which means that it is only accessible by a select group of people - our "beta testers" - to check over the software, how easy it is to use and how good it looks. Once we're all happy with it, we will release it to the public (you!). If you're interested in becoming a part of the beta team, simply create an account and apply to join from there.

MultiCrew Copilot provides an API to allow authorised third-party applications to access certain Copilot features, for example creating and managing flight requests, viewing user profiles and more. The API is secured using an implementation of OAuth2 making it easily accessible for most applications.
