Evans & Sutherland CT5 Simulator circa 1981

Check out how nice the polygon graphics graphics were in this simulator for 1981! At the price of 20 million dollars, it wasn't exactly cheap either.... A nice video of the flight simulator here: And from the same youtube channel, here's a demo of the Link Flight Simulator - 1984

Looks like each one was about 10-15 years ahead of its PC equivalent. Impressive for 1981.
