I couldn't tell from watching the vid or reading the blurb - is this full-motion? The blurb mentioned bumps in the concrete, and the video seemed to show a genuine angle on ascent - anyone know if it's full motion? Also, no mention on the simulator software - anyone know whether it was FSX, FS9, X-Plane or something else? Enquiring minds want to know (EMWTK - my new acronym - watch for it!)

This is one good recommend for going out and trying the FE 'Flight Experience' simulator .

A level D sim has motion.

Looks like G550 cockpit to me.... Nice one on catching up Boeing...

I've got 2 hours in an AirNZ full motion 737-300 sim next week - i'll let you know if beats a non-motion sim

hmm im hopefully heading up to auckland to have a go in the Mt cook full motion ATR sim .
Apparently no comparison to the non motion one(been in that, best day ever ).

One of these - it's all their own software - these things are US$13,000,000+!!!

Wow - that's a frightening amount of money! So I presume from that figure that it will be full-motion then?

I have been on a couple off full motion flight simulators , one even being the old NAC/ANZ B/W Reda-Vision , early 80s , very impressed I don,t understand why people would not go out and use or even try out the FE sim , we appear to have many online mention wanting a tinker .. how many but a few ?
