My teenage son, who wants to be a pilot, received a two-hour flight lesson
for his birthday. It included an hour in the air, preceded by an hour in a
simulator. The simulator had six screens wrapped around the front of the
cockpit, and the simulator had a fair amount of motion to it (not a Boeing
but close enough) - it is qualified for the pilot certification process.
The whole thing ran on the aforementioned Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Nearly blew my mind.
