Sorry, I've posted this before so always feel like blabbering if I repeat - but here goes - I was 14, my dad had a print business and printed all the cockpit panels for a private company developing an F16 simulator for the Israeli air force. He took me to their offices one weekend. The setup was a full 180 degree screen projections, a realistics 1:1 F16 cockpit with all the panels and buttons etc, and a SGI running the show. They gave me the spinning Beatle car demo, and then sat me down to fly. That day left a hard imprint (including the price tag on the SGI which they were proud to mention). I was an Amiga kid, and to top it all off, the other room had what seemed like hundreds of Amigas, which were used to build 3D models for the simultaor.
