I've been in multi million dollar six degree of freedom simulators, but
I've never been in one that comes close to simulating reality.

They can only translate about a dozen feet from end to end - the resulting
motion is just not right.

Inner ears don't detect constant motion, they detect acceleration, and they
are very easy to fool.

Plus they can't come close to simulating the
things that really mess up your inner ears during sustained turns.

You can mess up your inner ear just by spinning in a chair. It doesn't take
much.

Ever heard of anyone suffering GLOC in a 6dof simultor?

Anyone ever suffered GLOC in a Bonanza or Airbus?
