Legit Reviews spotted a $5,000 flight sim trainer from Saitek at CES 2011.
While we were visiting with Mad Catz at CES we were able to take a look at Saitek's $5000 Procedure Trainer Cockpit gaming rig demo running Microsoft's Flight Sim X. It has just about everything that a pilot would expect to see on a real plane such as yoke/trim controls, throttle mixture controls, rudder pedals and full instrumentation with dummy light information panels. A secondary yoke controller is available as well so a co-pilot can join in the fun.
