The base was named in honor of World War I pilot 1st Lt Frank Benjamin Tyndall. The base operating unit and host wing is the {{wikipedia|325th Fighter Wing}} (325 FW) of the {{wikipedia|Air Combat Command}} (ACC). The base is delineated as a census-designated place and had a resident population of 2,994 at the 2010 census.<br /> <br /> The [[First Air Force]] community in FlightGear is headquartered at Tyndall Air Force Base, embodying the precision and discipline of its real-world counterpart.

Frank Benjamin Tyndall (1894–1930). Lt. Tyndall, a World War I pilot and Silver Star recipient, commanded the 22d Aero Squadron and shot down six German aircraft over France. He was killed in a Curtiss P-1 crash near Mooresville, North Carolina, on 15 July 1930. Following the establishment of the United States Air Force in 1947, the facility was renamed Tyndall Air Force Base on 13 January 1948.<br /> <br /> In December 1940, a site board selected a location 12 miles southeast of Panama City, Florida, on East Peninsula to host Flexible Gunnery School No. 9. The official groundbreaking took place on 6 May 1941, with Panama City’s mayor, Harry Fannin, digging the first spade of sand, and Colonel Warren Maxwell, Tyndall’s first commander, clearing the dense palmetto and pine-covered land. Bulldozers worked around the clock to prepare the swamps and scrubland for construction.<br /> <br /> On 7 December 1941, the first 2,000 troops arrived at Tyndall Field. Despite ongoing construction, the first class of 40 gunnery students began on 23 February 1942. Thousands of students passed through the base during World War II, including actor Clark Gable, who trained at Tyndall in 1943. That same year, Tyndall began training foreign military personnel, first from France and later from China, a tradition of international training that continues today with weapons controller programs.<br /> <br /> '''Cold War and Air Defense Era'''<br /> <br /> After World War II, Tyndall was temporarily demobilized. It briefly fell under Tactical Air Command in 1946 before transitioning to Air University. With the creation of the U.S. Air Force as a separate service in 1947, the installation became Tyndall Air Force Base.<br /> <br /> By September 1950, Tyndall became an Air Training Command (ATC) installation, hosting the USAF Pilot Instructor School and training Ground Controlled Intercept (GCI) operators, interceptor pilots, and flight crews for Air Defense Command (ADC). The training program initially used TF-51H Mustangs, later replaced by T-33 jet trainers, F-94 Starfires, F-89 Scorpions, and F-86 variants. Radar operator students trained aboard TB-25 Mitchells before transitioning to F-94, F-89, and eventually more advanced interceptors.<br /> <br /> From the late 1950s through the 1970s, Tyndall served as a major Air Defense Command installation, hosting the 73d, 20th, and 23d Air Divisions, responsible for defending the southeastern United States and upper Midwest. The base transitioned to advanced aircraft such as the F-100 Super Sabre, F-101 Voodoo, F-102 Delta Dagger, F-104 Starfighter, and F-106 Delta Dart, and maintained alert facilities during the Cuban Missile Crisis, scrambling interceptors against unidentified aircraft.<br /> <br /> Tyndall also operated as a radar and missile support site, including the CIM-10 Bomarc program, eventually joining the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE) system in 1965 and operating as a joint-use facility with the FAA. Radar systems evolved from AN/FPS-20 and AN/FPS-6 to the modern ARSR-4 search radar, part of the Joint Surveillance System (JSS).<br /> <br /> '''Modernization and Transition to F-35'''<br /> <br /> In 1991, the First Air Force headquarters relocated from Langley AFB, Virginia, to Tyndall as part of a Department of Defense reorganization. Tyndall transitioned between Tactical Air Command, Air Combat Command (ACC), and Air Education and Training Command (AETC) before returning to ACC in 2012.<br /> <br /> The 21st century brought unprecedented modernization. Tyndall became the first home of the F-22 Raptor, with the 325th Fighter Wing reorganizing into a combat-focused structure that consolidated maintenance and support functions. The base trains all F-22A Raptor pilots and maintains a high state of operational readiness.<br /> <br /> Looking ahead, Tyndall AFB is transitioning to host three squadrons of the F-35A Lightning II, solidifying its role as a premier Air Force installation. Its strategic location along the Gulf of America provides expansive airspace for advanced air combat training, large-scale exercises, and realistic operational simulations. The base continues to serve as a hub of innovation, training, and defense, maintaining its legacy as a cornerstone of U.S. air power.<br /> <br /> == Technical characteristics ==<br /> === Runways ===<br />     13L | HDG: 134.0<br /> <br />     13R | HDG: 134.0<br /> <br />     31L | HDG: 314.0<br /> <br />     31R | HDG: 314.0<br /> <br /> === Communications ===<br /> ==== FGCom frequencies ====<br /> (''The following table takes into account some frequencies available only in the current development version.'')<br /> {|<br /> |+ '''COMM'''<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | ATIS<br /> | 254.400<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | CLNC DEL<br /> | 118.050<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | GND<br /> | 121.900<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | TWR<br /> | 133.950<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | APP/DEP 1<br /> | 119.100<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | APP/DEP 2<br /> | 124.150<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | APP/DEP 3<br /> | 125.200<br /> |}<br /> <br /> <br /> ==== Navaids ====<br /> <br /> {|<br /> |+ '''TACAN'''<br /> |-<br /> ! style=&quot;background:#efefef; text-align: center&quot; | PAM<br /> | 124X,<br /> | 00 NM<br /> |}<br /> <br /> <br /> == Custom scenery ==<br /> [[User:J Maverick 16|J Maverick 16]] ais currently redesigning the airport so that the [[scenery]] is as faithful as possible to the real air base.<br /> <br /> === Progress ===<br /> ''The following table takes into account improvements available only in the current development version on GitHub.''<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> ! scope=&quot;col&quot;| Task<br /> ! scope=&quot;col&quot;| Progress<br /> ! scope=&quot;col&quot;| Remarks<br /> |-<br /> | Runway, beacon, PAPI, Tower<br /> | {{progressbar|20}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Taxiway layouts<br /> | {{progressbar|20}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Taxi signs<br /> | {{Not done}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Aprons<br /> | {{Not done}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Buildings<br /> | {{Not done}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Parking positions and ground net<br /> | {{Not done}}<br /> | <br /> |-<br /> | Comprehensive air base scenery<br /> | {{progressbar|10}}<br /> | <br /> |}<br /> <br /> == ATC services (USAF_TY) ==<br /> [[ATC]] service will be provided with [[OpenRadar]] regularly on weekdays, using also [[Mumble]] and [[FGCom]] - check [http://flightgear-atc.alwaysdata.net/ Lenny's website] for the exact times and dates, but usually on Wednesday evenings.

The base was named in honor of World War I pilot 1st Lt Frank Benjamin Tyndall. The base operating unit and host wing is the {{wikipedia|325th Fighter Wing}} (325 FW) of the {{wikipedia|Air Combat Command}} (ACC). The base is delineated as a census-designated place and had a resident population of 2,994 at the 2010 census.<br /> <br /> The [[First Air Force]] community in FlightGear is headquartered at Tyndall Air Force Base, embodying the precision and discipline of its real-world counterpart. Members engage in rigorous training exercises, plan and execute complex operations, and participate in large-scale simulations that set the standard for realistic military aviation in the FlightGear universe<br /> <br /> == History ==<br /> '''Early Foundations and World War II Era'''<br /> <br /> Tyndall Field was officially opened on 13 January 1941 as a gunnery range and was named in honor of 1st Lt. Frank Benjamin Tyndall (1894–1930). Lt. Tyndall, a World War I pilot and Silver Star recipient, commanded the 22d Aero Squadron and shot down six German aircraft over France. He was killed in a Curtiss P-1 crash near Mooresville, North Carolina, on 15 July 1930. Following the establishment of the United States Air Force in 1947, the facility was renamed Tyndall Air Force Base on 13 January 1948.<br /> <br /> In December 1940, a site board selected a location 12 miles southeast of Panama City, Florida, on East Peninsula to host Flexible Gunnery School No. 9. The official groundbreaking took place on 6 May 1941, with Panama City’s mayor, Harry Fannin, digging the first spade of sand, and Colonel Warren Maxwell, Tyndall’s first commander, clearing the dense palmetto and pine-covered land. Bulldozers worked around the clock to prepare the swamps and scrubland for construction.<br /> <br /> On 7 December 1941, the first 2,000 troops arrived at Tyndall Field. Despite ongoing construction, the first class of 40 gunnery students began on 23 February 1942. Thousands of students passed through the base during World War II, including actor Clark Gable, who trained at Tyndall in 1943. That same year, Tyndall began training foreign military personnel, first from France and later from China, a tradition of international training that continues today with weapons controller programs.<br /> <br /> '''Cold War and Air Defense Era'''<br /> <br /> After World War II, Tyndall was temporarily demobilized. It briefly fell under Tactical Air Command in 1946 before transitioning to Air University. With the creation of the U.S. Air Force as a separate service in 1947, the installation became Tyndall Air Force Base.<br /> <br /> By September 1950, Tyndall became an Air Training Command (ATC) installation, hosting the USAF Pilot Instructor School and training Ground Controlled Intercept (GCI) operators, interceptor pilots, and flight crews for Air Defense Command (ADC). The training program initially used TF-51H Mustangs, later replaced by T-33 jet trainers, F-94 Starfires, F-89 Scorpions, and F-86 variants. Radar operator students trained aboard TB-25 Mitchells before transitioning to F-94, F-89, and eventually more advanced interceptors.<br /> <br /> From the late 1950s through the 1970s, Tyndall served as a major Air Defense Command installation, hosting the 73d, 20th, and 23d Air Divisions, responsible for defending the southeastern United States and upper Midwest. The base transitioned to advanced aircraft such as the F-100 Super Sabre, F-101 Voodoo, F-102 Delta Dagger, F-104 Starfighter, and F-106 Delta Dart, and maintained alert facilities during the Cuban Missile Crisis, scrambling interceptors against unidentified aircraft.<br /> <br /> Tyndall also operated as a radar and missile support site, including the CIM-10 Bomarc program, eventually joining the Semi-Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE) system in 1965 and operating as a joint-use facility with the FAA. Radar systems evolved from AN/FPS-20 and AN/FPS-6 to the modern ARSR-4 search radar, part of the Joint Surveillance System (JSS).<br /> <br /> '''Modernization and Transition to F-35'''<br /> <br /> In 1991, the First Air Force headquarters relocated from Langley AFB, Virginia, to Tyndall as part of a Department of Defense reorganization. Tyndall transitioned between Tactical Air Command, Air Combat Command (ACC), and Air Education and Training Command (AETC) before returning to ACC in 2012.<br /> <br /> The 21st century brought unprecedented modernization. Tyndall became the first home of the F-22 Raptor, with the 325th Fighter Wing reorganizing into a combat-focused structure that consolidated maintenance and support functions. The base trains all F-22A Raptor pilots and maintains a high state of operational readiness.<br /> <br /> Looking ahead, Tyndall AFB is transitioning to host three squadrons of the F-35A Lightning II, solidifying its role as a premier Air Force installation. Its strategic location along the Gulf of Mexico provides expansive airspace for advanced air combat training, large-scale exercises, and realistic operational simulations.

<p>2ZEUS: </p> <hr /> <div>A '''virtual airline''' (VA) is a dedicated hobby organization that uses flight simulation to model the operations of an airline. Virtual airlines generally have a presence on the internet, similar to a real airline. There are over 100 virtual airlines of significance currently active in the internet (supporting a number of flightsims), with thousands of participants involved at any one time each using different simulator platforms.<br /> <br /> == Purpose ==<br /> Virtual airlines were started to give a sense of purpose to activities conducted within a flight simulator. This basic premise has evolved over time, along with available technology, to provide increasing levels of immersion but always with the same core purpose. When combined with increasingly powerful personal computers, advancing flight simulation software, and communications networks, virtual airlines are often able to provide compelling, realistic, experiences similar to operations inside a real airline. Virtual airlines also provide an avenue for members to gain access to additional content, such as aircraft and scenery, for use with their simulator. The appeal varies; for younger members, virtual airlines provide a sandbox environment where they can experience the corporate environment of commercial business in the airline industry, without the risk of financial loss. These organizations also provide an outlet for those who are interested in aviation but unable to fly themselves in real life due to financial, health, or other reasons.<br /> Most of all, its one step closer to enthusiasts feeling more involved in an airline environment and share their interests with others.<br /> Virtual Airlines also benefit the flight simulator community by providing valuable services such as ATC, events, and general help and knowledge.<br /> <br /> == Common elements ==<br /> There are several elements that are common across many virtual airlines:<br /> * A website as the focal point of the community<br /> * Internet forum where discussion and social interaction can occur<br /> * Customized livery that users can download together with aircraft and install in their flight simulator<br /> * Route schedules for members to fly in their simulators<br /> * Multiplayer events, often on a game network such as VATSIM or IVAO<br /> * Less common elements include:<br /> ** An Online database for recording and reporting flights and membership statistics<br /> ** Dedicated game server hosting to provide private areas for members to complete flights<br /> ** Award, rank and recognition systems<br /> ** Voice over Internet Protocol servers for members to communicate freely by voice<br /> <br /> == Virtual airlines ==<br /> {{Virtual airline summary<br /> |name = Air Europe Virtual<br /> |established = May 2013<br /> |logo = AEV-logo.png<br /> |status = We are looking for pilots<br /> |callsign = <br /> * AEVxxx<br /> |history = We opened this airline in May 2013 on the 8th.

The original idea was to create a virtual airlines without limits; fly anything, anywhere, anytime. This led to explosive growth and we were able to attract a totally unique leadership team.<br /> <br /> As time progressed, the staff and pilots met on Teamspeak and decided that we wanted to make a course correction. While flying without limited was fun, there wasn't them same sense of accomplishment after putting in hundreds of hours as some pilots find at the airlines structured on real-world operations. That meeting was where the Flight Unlimited Community concept was born.<br /> <br /> Today we are a strong community of Flight Simulation Enthusiasts that take it to the next level everyday. By networking together multiple unique Virtual Airlines, we are able to provide our membership with the services normally only found in significantly larger virtual airlines. This unique formula allows our pilots and staff to enjoy virutally unlimited opportunities for advancement within the community at large.<br /> <br /> Our community of pilots are able to go to a unified job-posting board to see what positions are available at every Virtual Airline and then use their current Virtual Pilot Stats to submit an application for the position. This means that you don't have to wait for a position to open up at Cathay Pacific Virtual as a Cathay Pacific pilot, but rather take a look at Caribbean Airlines Virtual or Japan Airlines Virtual for the opportunity to advance at your own pace. This doesn't only apply to pilots but also mid-level management.<br /> <br /> Pilots and management looking to move up through the ranking structure have the opportunity to one day become CEO's themselves, which make a Flight Unlimited Virtual Airline a truly unique place to fly and develop into the Virtual Aviation leaders of tomorrow.<br /> <br /> <br /> |website = http://www.flightunlimited.org/ <br /> |forum = <br /> <br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{Virtual airline summary<br /> |name = Virtual Star Alliance (VSA)<br /> |established = April 26, 2009.<br /> |logo = <br /> |status = Merged with Merlion <br /> <br /> |Number of member virtual airlines = 1<br /> <br /> |History = Virtual Star Alliance was the first alliance organization founded in Flight Gear.
