• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

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.

“She is not really interested, but she doesn’t mind me having it,” he added. “She says at least she knows where I am."
 
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.
