Founder’s Story
Why Meridian GMT exists, in Nicki Repenning’s own words.
A Pilot’s Passion,
A Simmers’ Mission
My path in flight simulation started at Saitek, long before I envisioned Meridian GMT. Back then, and throughout my time building Honeycomb Aeronautical, my goal was always the same: to create flight gear that felt real and respected the people using it. That same drive is what brought Meridian GMT to life. We want to deliver better, more reliable hardware to enthusiasts worldwide, without the corporate hurdles.
Meridian GMT is run on a straightforward principle: flight sim gear should be high-quality, easy to use, and constantly improved based on community feedback. Being an independent company gives us the freedom to listen to simmers, move quickly, and build products that make your virtual cockpit feel a little more like the real thing.
Our goal is simple: listen to simmers and build better hardware.
This project is entirely driven by the flight sim community. The encouragement and support we've received from simmers around the globe is what keeps us moving.
We don't want to put out the same gear with a new model number. We want to fix real problems simmers have, so we build for durability and precision, and we make it modular so the system grows with you. We want every flight to feel more real, whether you're a student pilot practicing procedures or a casual simmer exploring the world.
We're starting a new chapter, and I hope you'll join us. There's a lot more coming.
Thank you for your support,
Nicki Repenning
