I had the opportunity last week to see an F-16 flight simulator. It was a fully instrumented gondola section that fit onto the end of a centrifuge arm. I’m 6’5” and 240-lbs and there is absolutely no way I could get into that thing. Looks pretty challenging to me.

That plane is not designed for either tall or large people. 5’8 and wiry is more the spec.

As for the lovely lady, well, God bless her and thanks for her service. I hope she enjoyed my software.
