History
Air to Air Simulations Inc. is a privately held American company that specializes in the development and publishing of flight simulations, strategy games, visual effects, and sound. The company was originally founded in 2003 under the name Shockwave Productions Inc. On May 14, 2008, the company underwent a rebranding and changed its name to Air to Air Simulations Inc. (A2A). [1]
According to statements made by A2A Simulations Inc., the decision to change the company's name from Shockwave Productions to Air to Air Simulations Inc. (A2A) in 2008 was driven by reports of customer confusion between the two brands, compounded by the popularity of a similarly named online gaming website known as Shockwave.
In 2019, A2A Simulations made an announcement regarding a significant development in their partnership with Airtech Simulation and Laminar Research, the developer of the X-Plane software.[2]
