ABSTRACT:
A flight simulation game apparatus allows a game player to simulate hang glider maneuvers through physical sensations. A control lever which can be gripped by the hands of the game player is mounted on a framework and extends in transverse directions of the frame work. The control lever can be moved in longitudinal directions of the framework by a control lever moving mechanism mounted on the framework. While in simulated flight, the game player can view at least a front simulated scene image is displayed by a display monitor. A control system vertically scrolls the front simulated scene image displayed by the display monitor in response to movement of the control lever in the longitudinal direction. The control lever moving mechanism also allows the control lever to be moved in the transverse direction and also angularly moved about a vertical axis, and the control system horizontally scrolls the displayed front simulated scene image in response to movement of the control lever in the transverse direction and angular movement of the control lever about the vertical axis.
