Flying Soon to a Museum Near You | |
|

How many aviation museums are there in the United States? It might be hard to believe, but the answer is nearly 1,000. Some are too small to house even one aircraft. The world’s largest – the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. –hosted an international gathering of air and space museum officials in March, and invited two Microsoft engineers to touch down with some exhibition expertise from Microsoft Flight Simulator. Hal Bryan and Mike Lambert, both Microsoft software test engineers, demonstrated ways in which museums can use Flight Simulator to create customized interactive exhibits. Flight Simulator allows users to realistically recreate the experience of flying a myriad of different aircraft. Demand for the Microsoft session was high, Bryan says, noting that many participants changed travel plans to attend after hearing of the topic. | ||
