What a Sim

I'd rather have a real plane at that cost! $300,000 would buy a late model, tidy Cessna etc

A homebrew version of the $60 million simulators used to train pilots, Sheil's contraption is almost identical to the cockpit of a 747-400.

Thanks to 45 different software programs running on 14 different computers, the simulator allows Sheil to fly to and from 27,000 different airports around the world with breathtaking realism.[/quote]

One of these things is not like the other ones

Very nice sim, but I'd have spent the money on a 737 cockpit rather than a 747 - almost as automated for when you're feeling lazy, and much more flexible and where you can realistically go. Well no actually I wouldn't, on the used cars section of the Aston Martin NZ site at the moment there's a black 2008 V8 Vantage for $245k ... I think a cockpit sim could wait
