Chief Instructor Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Have a look at this clip from the BBC documentary series called "Reaching for the skies". It was made back in 1987/88 when perceptions of a VR headset were somewhat different to the reality we are now enjoying! The link will start the playback at the beginning of the section on VR, so no need to search for it. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/MnrKf3hr06Q?t=47m30s Best wishes, CI CPU: Intel i9 13900KS @5.8GHz | MB: ROG Strix Z790 Gaming-E | GPU: Asus ROG Strix RTX3090 OC | RAM: 32Gb Corsair Dominator DDR5 @6200MHz | Cooling: Custom CPU/GPU cooling loop | PSU: Supernova 850G2 @ 850W | OS: Windows 10 Home Premium 64Bit Storage: 3x Samsung EVO 970 Plus M.2 1Tb + 3x Samsung 850 EVO SSD 250Gb | Input: TM HOTAS WH Saitek Combat Pedals | Output: Samsung 50" OLED TV | VR: HP Reverb G2 | Audio: Realtek + Z906 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System
