It has a 6 axis motion system that can truly recreate the sensation of flight. On the inside, every part is the same as used on the actual airplane.
I was lucky enough to fly one of these simulators for a few hours, and let me tell you it was the most amazing experience of my life. It seems like there is no difference between these things and actually going up and flying. They are so realistic!
