Bruce Artwick: Flight Simulator II, Night Mission

Bruce Artwick was co-founder of SubLOGIC, and creator of the
best-selling program, Flight Simulator II. FSII was first available
for the Apple II, with versions released later for the TRS-80,
Atari 8-bit, Commodore 64, and other platforms. His 1976 master's
thesis, A Versatile Computer Generated Dynamic Flight Display,
about creating a real-time flight simulator on the PDP-11, provided
some of the early research for his flight simulation
software.
Bruce was also creator of Night Mission Pinball, a popular
pinball game that was available for Apple II, Atari 8-bit, C64, and
DOS computers.
