Back in the olden days the company I worked for flew mapping projects for all the approaches for Tinker AFB. Early days of digitizing the images and all compiled into what a pilot would see when coming in to land. The Air Force had some wiz-bang new fancy simulator they were working on. It would have been neat to see it, but we just supplied the imagery.

Now with computer modeling no doubt it is more realistic and sharper. No way can they simulate the 5.8 Gee of braking or 5 Gee of cornering forces, but I bet it is a fun simulator for the drivers for about 10 minutes, and then it is just another boring job.
