Remember you weren't born Muslim, you were simply raised Muslim.

I've flown a 1970's F4 Phantom simulator and it had no screens. It was all just instruments and some feedback in the stick. They didn't even have hydraulic cockpit movement. I would expect the SR-71 sim was the same. But you'd be surprised how much of a feeling for flying you can get from just "flying" on instruments.

15 years separates the two (the F4 and F15) though - I imagine lots of development happened in sims in those 15 years. And yes the F4 was a full F4 cockpit, taken from a real F4. This was in Brüggen, Germany back in the 80s.

Yes in old blighty you say “I hope MacBeth passes across your lips!”. It’s an old saying about the Scottish play.
