Recommended Posts

From the Flying Mag website: 

Researchers in Germany have connected a robotic arm to the cockpit section of an airplane to create perhaps the world's most realistic flight simulator. Designed by aeronautics firm DLR, the simulator uses a large mechanical arm built by KUKA, a pioneer in robotics and automation technology, to swing a Diamond DA40/42 around a virtual sky and runways and taxiways.
