This is a hydraulically operated flight simulator. Totally cool. You can simulate the 3-axis motion of flight in this thing. It was kind of jerky motion-wise, but if you don't know anything about flying it gave you a good starting point for controlling an airplane. As I can recall, the fuselage/wing shell it was made from came from one of many aircraft that were damaged in a flooding incident many years ago.
