Best Simulator!!

I just loved the Academy sim... It seemed so "in universe", especially the manual, written up and with the guy's brother... I always flew with him so he could get his chance to kick some Kilrathi ass Academy was cool, it's the only sim where You can see how the holo chamber looks before the thing turns on... I'd love a .png of that if anyone can get that to me...

Uh, it just glows white on and off, doesn't it?

I liked the WC1 simulator. It was annoying you couldn't change the fighter available (after flying my first mission on the Scimitar, I had hoped it would be available on the simulator so I could get used to the different turn rates and speed, but no luck), but that was really the only part I didn't like about it.

I think that flying a Hornet against a Gratha in the Sim, helped you on Secret Missions 1, when you were up against a Gratha in a Hornet.

Also in the WC II sim there was a Gauntlet

Well there's the whole menu setup when You're sitting inside this metallic egg with lots of circuits on the inside

There was a great reference to Academy in Fleet Action -- Bear mentioning that he'd spent time between ER and FA helping to test the Academy's new trainsim.
