> Want a perfect flight sim? Put a GoPro in the cockpit of every airliner for a year.

You're jumping ahead there and I'm not convinced you could do this ever (unless you're model is already a great physics engine). The paper itself has feeds the controls into the network. But a flight sim will be harder better you'd need to also feed in air conditions. I just don't see how you could do this from video alone, let alone just video from the cockpit. Humans could not do this. There's just not enough information.
