A working flight simulator, no computers necessary [video]
I gave my friend an hour in the link trainer for his retirement.
He tried to take off, enter the approach, and land. 45 minutes
later he failed. When he stepped out of the trainer he had
sweat so much he looked like he took a shower.<p>I got a turn after him. Just a simple task, take off, enter the
approach, and "follow the needles" back to the runway. I managed
to get it down on the grass parallel to the runway. I also looked
like I had taken a shower.<p>The wild part is that (a) it feels REAL and (b) they added
weather while I was flying.<p>I want one of these at home.
