Hi, I’m Mohamed. I moved from Africa to Canada with my family in 2001. It was a big change, but over time, Canada became home—and it gave me the chance to explore new interests, including my lifelong fascination with aviation.
Growing up, I was always fascinated with toy aircraft. This childhood passion sparked my imagination and played a big role in my life. Moving to Canada presented me with new opportunities to fuel my interest further.
Canada has been a welcoming home where I not only adapted to a new way of life but also found avenues to nurture my interests. Finding joy in the world of aviation has been a constant thread throughout my life, right from those early days in Africa to today.
The fascination with flight stayed with me as I grew up, eventually leading me to discover the immersive world of flight simulation. I loved the idea of taking something I was passionate about and seeing how far I could go with it. This passion effortlessly transitioned into my personal and professional journey, setting the stage for my work in flight simulation, where I have truly found my place.
My Background and Journey
I completed high school in 2004 but wasn’t able to continue my education at the time due to a mild disability. I applied for social assistance and stayed active through volunteer work to stay engaged and productive.
In 2007, I returned to Africa and stayed there until 2014, although I came back to Canada once a year for a few months before returning to Africa. In the summer–fall of 2014, I moved back to Canada permanently with my family. By late 2015, I began working as a rideshare driver, which gave me both flexibility and financial independence.
In 2018/2019, I enrolled in a college program to study AutoCAD, which I successfully completed over the course of a year. While I enjoyed learning drafting and design, I found AutoCAD to be quite technical, and the software’s subscription costs made it difficult to pursue further.
These life experiences shaped how I think about work, independence, and learning. They eventually led me to look for ways to build something online—at my own pace and from home.
Discovering My Passion: Flight Simulation and More:
As I continued to explore my fascination with aviation, I stumbled upon the exciting world of flight simulation. It felt like coming together of my childhood love for aircraft and my growing enthusiasm for technology.
Flight simulation started out as a hobby, but it quickly became something I looked forward to every day. With just my PC and a joystick, I found myself learning more about flying, aircraft controls, and how real aviation works—all from home.
The learning curve in mastering flight simulators was challenging yet rewarding. Every simulated flight brought new insights and improved skills, turning abstract childhood dreams into almost tangible flying experiences.
Sharing these experiences with others soon became a passion of mine. I realized there was a desire in the community for both guidance and expertise in selecting the best flight simulation software and hardware. I seized this opportunity to offer reviews, tips, and recommendations.
This drive to share knowledge and enhance others’ simulations laid the groundwork for my brand: ‘Flight Simulator and Accessories.’ It crystallized my mission to guide fellow enthusiasts toward finding exceptional flight simulation equipment and enjoying unparalleled virtual flight experiences.

Transitioning to Home-Based Work:
In late 2020, I joined Wealthy Affiliate while exploring ways to earn money online. As a rideshare driver, I was looking to shift into home-based work and WA felt like the right fit—it offered practical training, tools, and the freedom to build a brand around my interests.
I also explored other affiliate platforms like Commission Hero along the way. While some people had success with its upsells like Hero AI and Platinum X, I found it wasn’t the right fit for me. The business model involved expensive tools, paid ads, and promoted products I didn’t feel comfortable recommending. In the end, I chose a more sustainable and ethical path by focusing on content, SEO, and long-term value.
Now, I’m building my online business around flight simulation—something I truly enjoy—while keeping rideshare as a secondary job.
