How It's Made

Season 15 Episode 4: Flight Simulators, Bookbinding, Greenhouse Tomatoes, Hurricane-Proof Shutters

Cockpit controls, computer-generated displays and motion systems are integrated into realistic flight simulators. Printed sheets are folded, sewn and enclosed in handcrafted covers using traditional bookbinding methods; tomatoes are cultivated under carefully regulated greenhouse conditions; and reinforced shutters are fabricated and tested to protect windows from hurricane-force winds and flying debris.
