PORTLAND, OR, September 5, 1995 - - ThrustMaster, Inc. (Nasdaq: TMSR) today announced the release of the new Limited Edition F-16 FLCS controller for flight simulation software. Offering the same functionality and superior design as ThrustMaster's award winning F-16 FLCS multi-function joystick, the Limited Edition model sports a steel and aluminum base, serialized brass plate, an extended 2 Year Warranty, and greater spring tension for maximum control while flying.
A limited run of only 5000, each F-16 FLCS Limited Edition will include its own serial number and signed Certificate of Authenticity signed by Maj. Gen. Joe H. Engle (Ret), Lt. Col. Robert Shaw (Ret), and Capt. C.A. "Buzz" Hoffman (Ret).
"For those who want the ultimate flight sim experience, there is no other stick to use," said Buzz Hoffman, a ThrustMaster Vice President and one of the chief contributors to the development of the product. "This is by far, the most realistic and superior flight controller in the industry today."
The F-16 FLCS Limited Edition is designed for use with IBM and compatible PCs and will be available only direct from ThrustMaster for $499.95. Serial numbers will be issued on a first come, first serve basis.
