Man builds flight simulator in his bedroom

I read more about him. He spent over 10,000 English pounds building it. Some might say that is crazy (I wouldn't!), but then again, I have spent way more than that on a boat, motorcycle, etc.... I guess it's all in what one considers important! NC

That's so true.
My system would have cost about 9,000.00 US. But I have been able to use materials from around my property, Cockpits made up of PVC pipes, Dashes made from scrap aluminum from grandpa's G21, thrift store towers that I rebuilt to what I needed, 6 projectors that turn my spare room into a live environment.

While I have a tremendous respect for someone with that much dedication, I couldn't be happy with such a specific cockpit. I fly an ecclectic mix of aircraft; hardly any of which have glass cockpits. If I could figure out how to build a generic single seat cockpit with working steam gauges I could really have some fun!

I know that feeling.....
I have 7 different cockpits made up. With a quick change of a few little things here and their, I can fly most every aircraft I have in my collection.
