You neglected to mention that Lockheed and Boeing are still in the game, although primarily in the military end of the business.

Indeed i did , not insult intended as i left FSI off the list too. But Thales and CAE both used e&s ep1000 visuals on some of the contracts, and so does FSI through Alteon .

This news is particularly interesting in light of Rockwell's purchase of NLX a year or so ago. Looks like they may be making a serious run at the simulation game......

Now all they have to do is aquire a motion base company to complete the system. Moog is now making alot of their platforms now. Could be a possiblity? E & S may be a questionable platform but has possiblities.crossfing
