BBS' and Online services where you may obtain various files and 
utilities. These utilities have been created by ThrustMaster users to 
make using your FCS(PFCS), WCS I, WCS II, and RCS more fun and realistic:

Many of these BBS' are members of SIM-NET, a BBS network dedicated to 
serving the unique needs of members of the growing hobby of flight 
simulation all across America and, indeed, the World.  Many of the BBS'
listed below may not yet have the utilities files available.  Please be
patient while the SIM-NET operators get the file-sharing feature of SIM-NET
connected so that files posted on one BBS will eventually be transmitted and
shared with other SIM-NET member BBS'.

Note: The above boards are run by private individuals, so their time of
operation and continuing availability is up to the individuals who put
forth the effort to maintain them.  Your continuing support of the efforts
of those who run these boards is much appreciated.  The Sysops of these
boards put in many long hours and invest a lot of money into setting up
these BBS' for your benefit.  Please assist them in continuing to provide
you with these services by sending in donations when requested for new
equipment, etc.  

Over the years I have wittnessed the beginning and ending of many BBS' 
begun by well-meaning individuals who thought that users would help support 
their efforts.  Too often, many users simply signed on, took what they 
needed and then offered no financial assistance whatever.  This ultimately 
leads to the board operator finding it necessary to either fold the 
operation of the BBS or take it private and require high monthly or annual 
fees to continue it.  Please keep in mind that if you wish to continue to 
have this type of service available to you when you need it, then you 
should send a donation to assist in keeping it available.

Technical support is available on all the above BBS' and on the
following online services:
