Is the 800NG full motion?

Hi Andy

Its fixed base, maybe in the future we can get the cockpit on a platform, its not impossible, just expensive !

Many who have experienced this level of sim will agree that the quaility of visuals and sound effects now possible go a long way deceiving the senses and make up for the multimillion motion, so we have concentrated our efforts there.

There will be new page on our website in the next few weeks with more info and pics, or drop in if you are in the area anytime, all welcome.

Regards

Jane

Hey all,

Just wanted to let ya know if your ever in Singapore,
There's a new B737-800 simulator beside the Singapore Flyer.
I was flying in it for about 25 minutes and it only cost $60
Only about 30 euro

It's was the business

The pilot that was flying with me was a 738 captain for Singapore Airlines.... And a funny f**ker....
I done a T&G no bother and then flew into Kitac (Very interesting)
