This year at PAX East, Thrustmaster had a VR demo of their HOTAS controllers[1], which are intended to allow pilots to access all critical functions of the aircraft without removing their hands from the controls. It's been a long time since my flight sim days, and I've never had such a strong urge to drop a couple thousand dollars on a new gaming PC.
