Here we go

Let's not forget that the technologies propagate outwards, allowing the rest of us to gain some sense of what it's like for ourselves. Thanks to sims I have flown the shuttle from liftoff to EVA to landing. I have flown every kind of aircraft from ultralights to modern jet fighters/bombers and even helicopters. I'm a pretty good race driver as well (Won the Indy 500 9 times. I have SO MUCH respect for those in the real thing.) Simulators give those of us on the outside a much clearer picture when we see and hear what those on the inside are actually doing.
