Back in the late 80's, early 90's, I used to play a flight simulator where you were a pilot of a commercial aircraft.

It was similar in that it was real time. If I was flying from Los Angeles to Hawai'i, it literally took 5+ hours. So, you'd master the take-off, then get up to altitude, then wait. Then you'd chill for hours - making slight changes to your heading/altitude depending on the winds and the weather. Then, after all that, you'd have to talk to air traffic control and land smoothly in all kinds of weather. It gave you an appreciation for the boredom that the pilots have to endure, while still paying enough attention to avoid incidents.

I think I might buy this ... it looks like it might interest me ... as long as I can have things going on my other screen. :-)
