      Good question! Even my boss fails to ask me this.

      I like the fact that I’m able to influence the design of a massive computer game! If you’ve ever played a car racing video game or flight simulator you will have a pretty good idea of what a simulator actually is. However, I take it a step further. Imagine playing that flight simulator inside a real aircraft cockpit. That’s how far I have to go, so I get to understand how humans react to lights, sounds, feelings and their surroundings too. It is a unique area of engineering to be honest.
