Hi,
Attached are the most recent photo's of my 737NG sim/convert the attic into an airliner project...!
- Most of the backlighting, LED's, switches are in and working thanks to the FDS Sys 3 board. Still waiting on the landing gear unit from FDS... taking a while.
- Co-pilot panel arrived from Engravity this week, so started getting that installed and building the other side wall.
- The exterior lighting and engine start overhead panels arrived from Cockpitsonic USA - very good quality, already mounted with electronics and knobs - interfaced through the sys3 board and FSUIPC. Will work my way up to the rest of the overhead when either A; I get some more work to pay for it, or B; I just max out the credit card (think of all those air-miles though!).
- 10inch touch screen TFT also arrived (brand new via Ebay for £90) - using this as the CDU/FMS which works really well until I can afford to buy the Engravity hardware CDU. I'll then put the 10inch TFT in the center panel with some "real" gauges instead of my 17inch thats there at the moment providing EICAS and standby instruments.
So much to do... So many nice things to buy... (if I could afford them!). God I love this hobby!!!
Kind regards,
Dan
