2003 - Paris Air Show
Dateline June 2003 - Chino reported... " Now this is not the full blown motion simulator with a dome, but it was a fairly complete EF cockpit with the MFD's, HUD, switches, etc. in the right places (canopy and ejection seat too). The display was a large flat projection, and the HUD symbology was on the screen rather than in the HUD. But it was still cool.
Selecting, locking, and sorting the bandits was easy (with prompts for the HOTAS switches to use) and I quickly made 4 AMR kills -- not a tough profile. Landing was not as slick -- I overcontrolled and was a bit sloppier than I would have liked. "He's a pilot??"... "Um, just Cessna, guys" -- no, really they were very cool, blaming it on the delay in the video display rather than PIO which it was!). Anyway, it was fun - at least 15 minutes in this thing. I want one!
