Why not develop a flight sim along with software engineered for movie and /or documentry applications. Modern Warfare has a huge following for its on-line land battles with some air warefare, although very arcadeish. However, you get the point.

Electronic Arts buys small and not so small software companies constantly. Look at SIMS an obscure idea for a niche, that turned out to be the all time leading game/sim of all times. It can be done, just not in Russia.

CGI movies was one of the applications Maddox Games was considering when building the new game engine for the new IL-2 series. They've obviously had problems with the graphic engine so that application is still up in the air, although they wouldn't have worry about getting playable frame rates when doing computer generated effects for movies.
