Andy Hollis

Andy Hollis is an American game designer and game programmer mainly known for his flight simulator games.

He began his career at MicroProse Software, where he was responsible for games like "MiG Alley Ace", "Kennedy Approach", "Gunship", "F-15 Strike Eagle II", "F-19 Stealth Fighter", and "F-15 Strike Eagle III".

He joined Origin Systems in 1993 where he was responsible for creating games for Electronic Arts' "Jane's Combat Simulations" brand. Among the simulations created at Origin are "AH-64D Longbow", "Longbow 2" and "Jane's F-15".

When Origin changed its focus to online games, he moved around within Electronic Arts and was working on NASCAR games and a Harry Potter on-line game.

He returned to Origin in 2003 after two years of retirement, where he oversaw the development of "Ultima X", which was cancelled before release in 2004. Later, he served as president of Fastlane Games, Inc., working on the development of a massively multiplayer online game for NCsoft before retiring again in 2006.

He formerly served on the Solo Events Board (SEB) and is a very active member of the SCCA's Solo program. In 2006, his seven straight class wins and two Super Challenge victories lead to the Overall Championship in SCCA ProSolo.
