Default Tour of the "Kiwi"

Jay,

Thanks for the last-minute tour of the Kiwi on Friday. I'd have to say
that MS Flight Sim is a lot more engaging on the big screen. Other than
practicing instrument procedures (which I've done a lot), I've never
done much else with simulators because they lack the visual & motion
cues. With the huge screen I think you have cured that. Of course I
still think you need 2 more projectors to put side views on the sides
of the room, and a full-motion hydraulic system would be nice, and I'm
sure if your A&P gets creative he can do something with that cockpit
from a Cherokee Six... (and all this would make that new computer look
downright cheap)

If I've ever got the Pilatus over to Iowa, you and Mary are welcome to
rides,

Thanks,
Eric Bartsch
