Default Libelle Camelbak stowage

They had a stick mounted on a table top for control inputs and a basic
visual display. As a glider pilot I had no trouble landing it
repeatedly but completing an aileron roll on final never worked out.
Even with a big pitch up before beginning the roll, the slow roll rate
would allow the nose to drop too far to recover...

AND you can try your hand at landing the Space Shuttle simulator.

I used to have a PC version of that: it started you at 55,000 ft and some
highish subsonic speed. You could fly it with a mouse and function keys
or use various degrees of automation up to letting it land automatically.

Curiosity: Is that the same version they use in the museum?
