LOL yeah everyone wants that job. But if you do get it, the only sim for that type of flying is at one of the local airports.
 
why would you need a "sim" to fly a Husky?

Two reasons one for the pilot and the second is for the gunner in the back seat. Yes take a very big hanger, husky frame on a movable platform and two different screens one for pilot to fly, and the other for the gunner to practice shooting a shotgun at coyotes. As far as I know its the only one in the world ran also owned by the USDA. One frigging big X box that you sit in
 
Ok Ill do my best to try and get some its gonna be a few weeks. The new supervisior is kinda tight. I spent 30 minutes looking on the UDSA site last night coulnd't find a thing but only the contract given to the construction company to build the indoor shooting range simulator.

I was wondering who the owner was when I saw this plane out at the very small airport I usually fly out of

I wonder if this is the same kind of thing? If not, it sure otta' chap the hides of some Colorado folks that they're paying for this badass plane to fly to Texas.
