This was the dawn of 3D graphics acceleration on PCs. The Banshee turned my modest Pentium 233MMX into a screaming graphics machine, with all the great Voodoo graphics effects and a silky smooth frame rate on most sims. MiGMan, 1998
The Atari ST 1040 computer was my introduction to the world of flight simulation. Titles like Gunship, Falcon, F-19 Stealth, F-15 Strike Eagle II and others made use of the dedicated graphics and sound hardware built in to the Atari ST. It took some years for the IBM PC's to catch up.

Founded by the aeronautics pioneer Pierre-Georges Latecoere during 1917, the company became well known in its first few decades for its range of seaplanes, such as the six-engined Latecoere 631. Wikipedia
In 2024 this popular manufacturer of Car sim racing accessories made a move into the Flight Sim space with a sturdy looking Force Feedback joystick along with a split throttle and rudder pedals. It’s been my observation that car sim race racers are MUCH harder on their gear than flight fans, so it be interesting to see how and if the MOZA injection influences that aspect of build quality in our beloved HOTAS space.
Affordable high-fidelity flight simulation systems, avionics, and accessories... (for) flight simulation enthusiasts as well as general aviation professionals.

There was a time when I flew in MiGMan's MiG-pit Mk-I with 120 functioning switches and buttons. It worked, but what a pain in the khyber it was to reprogram it! In December 1997 Saitek brought out the PC-Dash, a device which when combined with the X-35/36 programmable joystick and throttle effectively replaced my whole cockpit! | As of 2018, Saitek has been acquired by Logitech.
