Utah State University joined USU aviation students as they took flight in a recently acquired 737 jet simulator. Built from the cockpit of a retired commercial jet, the simulator captured every detail of real flight. Across the hall, a control simulator immersed students in the other side of flight operations. Three large screens displayed moving aircraft and airfield visuals, while realistic radio chatter, weather effects and visibility levels replicated real-world conditions.
