Extreme flight enthusiast's homemade cockpit.
German man enjoys bird's eye view of the world from comfort of his basement (news.yahoo.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Check out the cockpit that I built last year. www.727simulator.com
Cool video but I just think in 15 years and with $20K you could come up with something better than that. The best part of his setup is the screen; that'd be cool to use. Cockpit is too confined, panels look off, flight stick is on the wrong side (for an Airbus left seat anyway) and I didn't see a throttle unit.
Actually I was impressed that he did it for so cheap! I'm guessing the throttle is on the left side, opposite his right hand joystick.
I'm always impressed when flying my full motion A320 simulator at how realistic it is, esp. for CAT III landings, engine fires and failures, etc. And the graphics are so impressive, I can tell which airport I'm at--LAX, SEA, etc., for example!

Or you could just buy this one http://www.jetmax.ca/ which is a scaled down version of there full 737NG sim. Minus the movement it duplicates the 737 systems very well. Only cost 6K.
Now that is what I'm talking about. Thanks!
7-8K for the whole thing
