Perhaps the Ultimate Home Simulator?

A friend of mine shared a picture of his new home simulator. He lives in Las Vegas, and had a new addition to his home constructed, and commissioned this B777 "home cockpit". ~$600,000 not including the building addition. It is run by six computers loaded with P3Dv4 (started with P3Dv3):

It’s beautiful but 600K? That would buy you lessons to atp level and for the hours needed to be hired by an airline. Of course if there are physical disqualifications that’s a different story. Only thing I would change is to put full motion on it.

this guy truly has the flight sim bug.
 
Now that's what I call having "friends in high places" right there! He is either single or has a VERY understanding wife!

He remains single, so he has no one to nag him about what he spends his money on. :encouragement:
 
That's beautiful and if you have the budget, sure why not. Aesthetically, it appeals to my personal sense of design, and the technical build seems super clean. Nice work.

I know from my own experience that I would probably feel a bit isolated committing to a single airplane but we do have a lot of options now days. If I had the money to build the building and the sim, I'd be looking at the big radial fighter/bomber version next. :very_drunk:

Well, at least you have a very nice guitar!:ernaehrung004:

I thought I was doing well to have a two manual Conn Artiste concert organ.
I went to visit an old friend yesterday afternoon and discovered that he had five bloody organs, a concert grand piano, and an antique player piano.
 
Marbles

I have a old chest full of marbles of all sizes and colors. Started collecting back in 1964. Maybe 26,000? Yep. I got that. Bet he don't have any marbles. Or maybe he just LOST all of HIS MARBLES - HA.
