An FAA Qualified Level simulator can easily cost six figures, no one is suggesting a VR simulator is going to replace it - however once you've tried a sim in VR you'd likely never want anything else again.

An FAA certified tampon will set you back $10 each if you want to use the tampex tampon with the appropriate tracking number for a Piper. :P I'd expect uncertified to surpass it for far less.

(I've tried VR flight sims.. my god, having the view track with your head is amazing. One of a handful of killer VR apps)

especially for the cost! All you need is a $500 headset and a set of rudder pedals.
