Foynes, Ireland, well-known for its claim to fame for being the birthplace of Irish coffee during this time, served as an aviation hub between North America and Europe, and with the highly anticipated B-314 from PILOT´S, virtual pilots too can now recreate the many Atlantic crossings that made the fleet of Pan Am Clippers famous. Although none of the original 12 Clipper aircraft were preserved, the inspiration to create this PILOT´S representation of the B-314, which over time will be developed to study level, is to allow this majestic flying machine to yet again take to the skies, even if just to the virtual skies!
