A few places to begin, from the aircraft’s story to the people who fly it.
Aircraft and simulator background
The S.205-18/R is a four-seat, all-metal low-wing aircraft. Its Lycoming O-360 produces 180 hp and turns a two-bladed constant-speed propeller. Electrically retractable tricycle gear and manually selected flaps form the documented configuration.

History & design
The S.205 line
The developer's aircraft background dates the S.205's first flight to 1965 and describes civil and military use, particularly training. It identifies an all-metal low-wing airframe whose large honeycomb wing-skin panels reduce the need for conventional riveting.

A four-seat touring and training layout
Nemeth’s S.205-18/R description combines a four-seat cabin with an all-metal low wing, an electrically retractable tricycle undercarriage and a 180 hp O-360. Its two-blade Hartzell is a constant-speed propeller. The developer emphasizes the large honeycomb wing-skin panels used to preserve the laminar profile with fewer rivets. Its published speed and range figures refer to this 18/R rendition; the family name alone is not enough to identify another S.205’s engine or equipment.
