From their website :

"Today, Coanda Aerospace Software GmbH announces the launch of the GNU Aerospace initiative with the introduction of TestPilot.

The dawn of a “new model” of web browser based flight simulation declares the personal computer based flight simulation obsolete.
Fly amongst the "web computing clouds" anytime and anywhere in this revolutionary, massively parallel and distributed web browser based flight simulator. Participate in testing of "real world" next generation avionics systems software destined for use on actual aircraft. Learn how to fly with the vCFI, the virtual Certified Flight Instructor, and leave books, tutorials, manuals and videos behind for "deeply integrated" and "in context" training. http://gnuaerospace.org/

Well, I tried. I read everything I could on their site and on their sub-forum at Avsim.

But I still can't figure out what this Testpilot thing is about.

Could anybody please explain what one can do with Testpilot - other than send them money?
