>I take it that you mean a real fight simulator, though, and not MS Flight Simulator.

I mean only PC based simulators and I didn't do anything radical like a hammerhead stall or buzzing the tower.

>>BTW, I have proven that flight simulators can actually teach you to really fly. I had never been in a real plane, but when given the chance to take the controls, flew quite comfortably, even could sideslip into the cross wind.

>>>>>An interview I saw in 1989 with an Army General was interesting. The General expressed that video games were good for our children to play with. The use of a joystick and video monitor would help train our children for use of our weapon systems and those of the future.

>>>>>This article struck me and I had a thought about wars of the future.

>>>>>I can envision the President, Secretary of Defense and the Joint Chiefs of Staff sitting in a war room with video monitors from wall to wall. In front of each person is a joystick. The room is circular and divided like a map of the world. A series of monitors represents a critical area of the globe – one where we are at war.

>>>>>The military has a reduced number of troops, as American Military Personnel no longer engage in war directly. It is left up to our leaders to direct robots to destroy the enemy. This is an improvement over having military personnel in the field and we can have more wars around the globe. Another advantage is that we would not have to drop nuclear weapons on anyone.

>>>>>The power of technology is tremendous! We have gone from Pong to robot weapon systems.

>>>>The unfortunate aspect of this is that the folks who get paid to die are being removed from the lines but no relief is in sight for civilians in the line of fire. Better to just put the leaders in a cage death match and let the rest of us eke out our lives.

>>>I agree! There is a movement to allow persons who are foreign born to become President of the United States. Our Governator – Arnold, would make the perfect President! I am sure he would win every cage battle for our country as Conan, Terminator or any other part he has played! :)
