Welcome, and glad that you liked it.
There's no chance that I'll ever get up "there", but I would really, really like to at least experience it in VR.

Thanks, Jean.
Such things were science fiction when I was a boy. But it's more beautiful in reality than it was in my mind back then.
What we do in the simulations is like that, most of us go in our minds eye where we may never go in life. Some will relive the freedom of youth and flights long past.
It doesn't matter if it's the largest passenger airliner, the fastest military jet, a hovering helicopter, or a slow flight down a valley. To us, this is far better than racking up a high score in a video game.

With all the troubles around the world something like this really lifts the spirits. It's wonderful to see people who dare to dream and then turn the dream into reality, thanks for posting.
Cheers
