Update on The F14 simulators: I spoke to them this week and they have changed the software. The new sim flies an FSX products, which has some good and some bad. Gone is the Formation flying, but from what I was told, better graphics!
I have failed to mention the full motion FA 18 "ride"! Seats about 20 people, 6 degree motion base, with a simulated combat mission video. (Pay as you go)
Visited the upcoming "LSO" demo area which should be up and running by November. It will have the sight, sound and feel of being on the "Ronnie" flight deck during a launch and recovery. Looking good!
The new "hanger" will also be completed by the time of our meeting. It will house about 30 A/C from the '50 -'70's.
I have make arrangements to tour and film the "Restoration" area since it will be closed on Sunday. A Rep will give us an "update on what is going on there" at lunch Sunday along with a Museum overview .
Still looking for DVD's of your sim in action! ( please include a narrative if the DVD does not include one. I would like a rep from your group to give us all the highlights of your sim!
Keep watching as we progress in this event!
