This web-site was named "Site of the Month" by Dassault-Aviation - France
A fully operational flight simulator was created using the cockpit section of a South African Air force mirage F1-CZ tail number 206 flown by Major Arthur Piercy and shot down in a dog fight over Angola in 1987. Arthur survived and despite being being seriously injured and confined to a wheelchair, is now planning to fly around the world
The cockpit was removed from the wreck and has been carefully preserved by the Dooley brothers as a tribute to Arthur Piercy. It has now been fully restored with a full complement of original mirage cockpit components including an ejection seat and will be used as a certified flight simulator.
