Default Imitation being the sincerest form of flattery....

Rummaging through YouTube last night, I stumbled across a remake of Cheechako's legendary SkyWest CRJ video some dude made with MS Flight Sim! While not identical, the guy recreated many of the same shots in the original vid (try watching both side by side, some scenes are perfectly synced!)

I was sooo expecting to see a waving "Virtual Chris" somewhere in there!
