It took me nearly 10 years to find this...
I'm extremely pleased to have found a program which was one of the first things that drew me into the hobby of simbuilding. Many years ago there was a TV Program which i remember watching, unfortunately before the day and age of one button press recording i simply watched the program once before it was history.
Earlier today i was able to watch a video on youtube (which at the time wasn't invented) as it looked interesting and realised this was the television program which i had longed to see again.
Some of you also may have seen it, it's a documentary on discovery. If you haven't watched it i urge you to, its a great film which gives motivation, inspriation and knowledge.
Included in the documentary is flight sim legends such as Pete Dowson, Kev Saker, Matt Ford and James Price.
These are some of the true people that began this amazing hobby, and even when watching this you can see how computer and software have leaped forward even further to the virtual-reality we have today.
It's a great watch, its in 5 parts of 10 mins:
Part one:
Part two:
Part three:
Part Four:
Part Five:

I loved it. I knew there were some model railroaders that are in this as well .. Didn't know Pete Dawson was one though. It's a natural crossover as many of the skills are common to both.. Excellent video. I loved it.
