This video clearly shows why people build simpits!   Shocked  The last sequence looks VERY real....... watch it to the end.

Definately cool, saw it posted on Avsim a while back.

I would love to just go fly one of those.  Not build it, just go over and fly it

That's very cool... I wish they'd showed the display setup; it's obviously good quality... and I could do without Phil Collins anytime... Roll Eyes

Reminds me I've been thinking of eventually mounting a webcam in the back of my pit enclosure and posting clips or setting up a site... won't look as "real" as that, but it may be interesting to watch.
Guess I ought to do some more work on the 'pit, first, though... Roll Eyes
