    Yes, that is correct, 1 projector.
    I visited the flight sim center and tried their jetmax -- the 180 view however doesn't completely wrap around your views.

    This system uses one projector with a fisheye lens.

    I believe those projectors cost over 5 grand.

    Will be hard to implement with a median-heavy body aircrafts. You can see the image casting onto the fighter jet sim and it doesn't have the necessary wide angle projection as needed in an airbus/boeing aircraft.

    Re: FSX FOV and Fisheye Lens

    The projector is a Canon Realis and the fisheye I think is from Navitar. It is projected from the top down. His sim software is Lockheed Martin's Prepar3d v1.4 using the Omnimap API from the Eluminati. The price is probably well north of 5 grand for the projector setup. You could build a fisheye setup yourself like this guy to keep cost down. I believe his dome has a 10 ft diameter. His rig is definitely optimized for single seat aircraft.
