CAE SimuFlite and FLYING magazine jointly sponsor the annual Horizons of Flight Aviation Art Exhibition and Competition, a juried aviation art show that was first held in 1993. This year celebrates the 15th annual competition.

Horizons of Flight was created to support aviation artists and to give the public an opportunity to view their work. Selected works are displayed at CAE SimuFlite's Dallas/Fort Worth training center. In addition to the general public, the show is seen each week by hundreds of pilots and maintenance technicians who train at CAE SimuFlite.

FLYING magazine also features selected works from the show in its publication.

Awards are presented to Best of Show ($1,000 cash and trophy); to the work best depicting a business aviation theme ($500 and trophy); and to the work best depicting women in an aviation maintenance setting. Awards of merit (trophy) are also presented.
