What is P.V.I. "ITALIAN VIRTUAL PILOTS"
This association was founded on february 1995 by some italians keen on simulation. It's particurarly oriented on flight simulation, but it doesn't exclude "combat fight sims" realized with fight airplanes.
It is a "no profit association", and all earnings are totally assigned to improve other activities and initiatives that the members decided to carry on. Passion and interest hold all the members of the association together, and are clear signs that the association wants to be a point of reference for all italian simmers.
