The OV-10 Bronco Museum is an aircraft museum run by the OV-10 Bronco Association in the USA. It is home to a variety of OV-10 Bronco historical items.[1]
The museum is responsible for the OV-10 Bronco Association Museum Simulator Project[2]
The OV-10 simulator hardware at the museum runs a modified version of FlightGear 0.9.8 on Mandrake 10.1 w/ KDE desktop running on a PC with AMD 2300+ CPU, 512 MB RAM, and GeForce MX4000. Interace includes CRT monitor, keyboard, and a USB joystick. The setup simulates a OV-10 at Ramstein Airbase, Germany around 1980.[3]
Developments of the simulation installation include:[4]

The simulation installation was developed and setup by David Culp in 2005,[5] who has also worked on other developments for FlightGear.
