Hey guys ive been thinking long an hard about building a full home virtual simulator. Ive done alot of research to see the best parts at decent prices
Iv currently been looking at the new flight deck solution line JETMAX (737ng) as the qaulity is high and the prices arent too steep, has anyone got any ideas and places that sell parts. .iv also thought about building virtual simulators as whole and selling them in nz on the likes of trademe, before I do is there much interest before I do.

Thanks

Have you seen one in the flesh? If not, I'd wait until you have. FDS can be a little hit and miss. Some of their stuff is outstanding (I've seen their 777 and A320 FBT's) but other things can be a little "light" sad.gif
I'd look towards Fly Engravity, and CP Flight myself.....

If you do end up going down the engravity track, let me know. We buy engravity stuff at work, and could probably broker a deal with Robert for you smile.gif I can also take photos for you of the finished product (I'm in Miami about to install one right now...)
