Article: The Immersive Audiophile Update 4

[Account Closed]

If I had this system and being a former pilot, I would want to put a huge screen in front and hook-up a monster computer to run MS Flight Simulator. That way I could re-live the thrill of flying through a thunderstorm and hear the torrents of rain beat the hell out of the windscreen. Add in loud turbine engine noise and I would feel right at home. Then I would add a shaker seat so I could again get that visceral feeling of terror from the turbulence trying to tear the airframe apart. But, how beautiful it is when you emerge on the other side.

I love that!

 

It’s theater of the mind, audio only for me, but I love hearing what others enjoy. 

 

@AudioDoctor may want the sim as well. I believe he’s in the air today. 

I posted this especially for him. I am sure he has been there. If you fly long enough there is no escape.

It's all fun and games till you're at 43,000 feel trying to figure out why your fuel burn is completely out of whack so you start looking for divert options and there is no reset button.

 

 

I prefer my emergencies to only happen in the sim.  

 

 

Takes me back a long while. The Sabre 60 sim was night only and glass cockpits were a dream. Thanks, Doc
