Flight Streamer is my aviation and flight simulation channel where I fly realistic routes, follow real cockpit workflows, and bring you along for the full experience - planning, cockpit setup, ATC, approaches, and landings.
About Flight Streamer
Creating immersive
aviation content every week.
Flight Streamer is a Canadian private pilot and aviation content creator who blends real-world flying with high-fidelity flight simulation and immersive livestreams. He flies a Diamond DA40 in real life and has been using flight simulators since 1997, inspired by his father - a former Air Defence MiG squadron commander and fighter pilot in the Soviet Union. That legacy continues today through his mission: to share the wonder, challenge, and depth of aviation with others.
Although not a full-time creator, Flight Streamer has built a significant presence across platforms by focusing on realism, community, and passion. His content features gate-to-gate flights in complex aircraft like the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 Max 8, flown under real-world procedures with fully staffed ATC on VATSIM, realistic weather, Navigraph charts, and immersive cockpit setups. He is known for live flying streams, cinematic short-form videos, and educational content that helps viewers get started in both sim and real aviation.
His home cockpit setup is a blend of modular and professional-grade gear, including hardware from Winwing, Moza Racing, Cockpit Simulator, VirtualFly, and Skalarki. He creates hands-on reviews, unboxings, and tutorials - showcasing throttle quadrants, sidesticks, overhead panels, motion rigs, VR headsets, and integrated control systems, often weeks before public release.
As an official Media Partner for global events like FlightSimExpo, FSWeekend, and SimGaming Expo, he works closely with leading developers and manufacturers, offering early access, community coverage, and deep-dive reviews for serious flight simmers and newcomers alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes - I am a Private Pilot (PPL) and I fly the Diamond DA40. I have 350+ hours, and I bring that mindset into the simulator with checklists, disciplined decision-making, and a focus on realism.
Live streams, plus short-form Reels and Shorts. Expect realistic airline-style ops in the sim, GA flights, challenging approaches, busy online ATC, event flying, and hardware reviews.
Realism and curiosity. I aim to stay close to real-world procedures, but I also treat every flight as a chance to learn something new with the audience. The community is a big part of the stream - the diversity of backgrounds and knowledge levels makes it smarter, more fun, and constantly surprising. I am genuinely grateful for that.
Most of the time, yes. I fly online with VATSIM or PilotEdge whenever possible, which means ATC is run by real people and radio work matters.
No. I am not an authority on investigations and I will not speculate on pending cases. I also will not recreate any real-world event if it involved serious injury or loss of life - out of respect for the people and families affected.
Yes. You do not need an aviation background to enjoy the streams. I keep explanations simple and I will call out what is happening in plain language as we go.
I try to stay close to real-world SOPs and good habits, but this is an entertainment stream - not training. Do not treat anything you see here as flight instruction.
Online ATC can get intense, especially during events. Controllers are managing heavy traffic and pilots are expected to keep calls short, correct, and timely.
Vertical is built for short-form viewing - I use vertical format for YouTube Shorts-style streams. Horizontal is the full experience - I stream in 2K on Twitch for a more traditional, cinematic view. I have recently started streaming both vertical and horizontal on Twitch as well.

I get asked this a lot, so I keep a complete list of my gear with links on the My Setup page. Links contain all available discounts.
Yes. I post active offers on the My Setup page and on the homepage. Current code: FSTREAM5 for 5% off your Virtual Fly order. Verified active for 2026.
Yes. I review hardware from a practical simmer and real-world pilot perspective - build quality, usability, mounting, software setup, and how it holds up in real streaming workflows. I always share my own opinions.
Sometimes. If a video is sponsored, if a product was provided, or if affiliate links are used, I disclose it where it appears. My opinions remain my own.
Yes - the best place is my Discord. Channel members get the highest priority. Requests also depend on online ATC availability, especially on VATSIM.
Sometimes, depending on the network, event rules, workload, and the plan for that stream. If it is set up to be a fly-along, I will say so clearly.
Please ask first. Sharing the original link is always the safest way to keep credit and context intact.
