That would be quite impressive it it actually worked.
Does ETOS support FORTRAN programs, with the FRTS handling interrupts 
et al?

That would be pretty amazing stack of emulators:
SIMH emulating a PDP-8, running ETOS emulating OS/8, running FRTS 
emulating a FPP-12, executing FPP code to finally run Adventure. :)

I don't think that's ever going to work. :)
