Lockheed Martin looks at a St. Paul man's simulators
JULIO OJEDA-ZAPATA
Associated Press
ST. PAUL - High-tech flight simulators used to train this country's military pilots often incorporate specialized components and software costing millions of dollars.
But with average consumer computers packing increasingly impressive horsepower, the U.S. military and its defense contractors have begun eyeing affordable mainstream technologies.
They have turned to Mike Pohl of St. Paul, for instance.
Pohl builds fighter-jet simulators - which he calls AeroDomes - for about $57,000 to $75,000, using off-the-shelf PCs and other readily available parts. That's a potentially huge bargain for military flight trainers if the AeroDomes prove effective.

Flashing lights and sirens: New Traffic Training Simulator for the Bavarian Police
Assignments with special signals and special rights present a particular challenge to policemen and policewomen in their patrol cars, involving a high stress and risk potential. Driving a car with the siren and flashing lights switched on needs a lot of practice. For a new way of training a traffic training simulation system was officially handed over to the Bavarian alert police forces on 22 January 2003 at Sulzbach-Rosenberg.
TacSi® is not just another constructive simulator that moves tactical symbols across a screen as an electronic version of the old sandbox. TacSi® combines a constructive and a virtual simulator in one system with one common architecture to a flexible multi-application training system.
