I live nowhere near Las Vegas, but if I did I would have to check this one out.

So you can play a flight simulator for 30 minutes for a wonderful cost of 50$? Why would one bother?

I gotta believe a full motion, close the door behind you simulator has to be a different experience than my PC and computer desk. You could be right though, when in town that 50 could go towards tickets to see the fabulous Celine Dion. whenpigsfly

Why not go to your local FBO and, if they are big enough, they will most likely have a full motion simulator. Anywhere from 50-75 dollars per 60 minutes you can actually log REAL flight time.

For that much you can have an intro flight in a real airplane.
