VIDEO GAMES GET SERIOUS:
WHY MORE TIME IN THE SIMULATOR EQUALS BETTER TRAINING



The steady hum of the fighter jet loudly echoes in your helmet. As you soar at 30,000 feet, a voice in your headset tells you it’s time to land.

Sandstorms are rolling in from the west, and you will be forced to recover in low-visibility conditions. This is a one-seat plane and you are on your own.

You position the aircraft on final bearing aligned with the landing area and rely on the flight control system to assist in keeping you on course.

… 500, 400, 300 feet.

“You’re slightly right of course. Just a little low,” the voice says.

As you approach the ground, you ease the stick aft.

“30 knots of wind. A little power on.”

Touch down.

You hear the screech of the rubber as the tires skid across the runaway. In a matter of seconds, you have come from flying 200 knots to a complete halt.

The sand clears in front of you, and you can feel your heart pounding. A small door to your left opens and light floods in.

Only then do you remember: this was a simulation.
