NZFF

Aviation has been in my family all of my life. My father built the first homebuilt in NZ to be tested and passed as fully aerobatic.
I find it cheaper now days to fly around in my shed than the real thing so I have built myself a 2 seat side by side simulator.
I have it so that I can select 1 of 3 panels. A baron 58, a Boeing 737 800 or a Boeing 777 300.

Welcome aboard ....very nice set up

Hey ya Glen and welcome, great setup alright ..... BBQ chairs ... now were is the inflight BBQ hotplate

Nice work Glenn !!! .. looks perfect. Wish I had enough room to start a project like that

Wow! Great setup!

Welcome aboard

Nice work Glenn - see if you can upgrade those seats to First class though - I would imagine sitting for more than a couple of hours will kill your back and your bum!

What a great setup... plenty of thoughtful touches, like the windscreen framing.
Love the BBQ chairs!
I am hoping you invite folk over to share this joy...

Thanks for all of your comments. I have just finished reconfiguring my set up so that I can add a seventh monitor, which I am going to install into the ceiling and use to display the overhead panel.
As for seats, yes that is also part of my plans for finishing off. I am finding it hard to get all the bits and pieces finished off as I am always flying.
Anybody is more than welcome to come over and spend some time in my sim, it would be great to get other peoples feedback and comments actually !!
I have also worked out and have done my drawings to make 737 style control columns
