Varjo hosted this presentation yesterday and it’s now available on youtube.
The USAF needed a simulator to practise in flight refueling of the B-52 so they turned to a handful of companies to help them out.
A pretty interesting story about how one can build a flightsim station, using motion, force feedback, VR and a green screen.

…oh yeah, I’m older than dirt.
