My aim for this pit is not to replicate a Full military type training =
simulator , for 1 i dont have the resources and brains to strech my =
self that far .

I had a great chance to fly a modem military simulator on the base , it =
was great , had a ball the visual ques were brilliant sounds excellent =
, infact the ride was so good that about 5 mins into my aerobatic =
routine i started to feel ill ( IN a SIM )
=20
What i want to do is create a simulator where i can plonk a Airforce =
cadet in the cockpit fire up the sim and let them fly around as =
experience , unfortuntly giving them lots of real air time is very =
expensive at the moment, the sim doesnt have to be exactly smooth on =
the visual ques react exactly as per a real aircraft , this will =
basically ben used as a proceedual trainer , in instrument flying and =
radia nav aid work .

I know that if i hopped into a sim as a pilot i would feel the =
difference after a period of time but the people with no pilot/ flying =
experience or even advanced theory, will i believe enjoy them selfs and =
enjoy there learing experience , thats why i am not to fussed with =
getting a " gramatical " correct simulator straight away , in time it =
will be developed .
=20
this is IMHO i could be wrong or barking up the wrong tree
=20
i will try and dig up some didital pics of the LINK trainer and up load =
them to the simpits server if any one is interested , for a machine =
built pre war its pretty complex

thanks all
