Flightmanager Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Yes , it sure is !! Its now full motion, funny to watch from the outside !! Worldflight is now in South America , heading to Rio de Janeiro this morning , then off to South Africa. A mate of mine from Tassie , acting as First Officer . This is the view from the rear of the simulator. This is the Air Traffic Control Room. WorldFlight provides its own controllers . These are some of the computers used to run the sim . ( There are others onboard !!). Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
