Hi people!
As soon as I logged in for the first time I was asked to say a few words about myself.
Well, here goes:
Me and my father have been building a NG737 cockpit since 2002. And we haven't shared much of our building experience yet. We plan to publish a e-document over new year, where we explain our sim in full.
But to the basics first:
We have a full scale flightdeck that works with the following system working (some of them not finished yet):
Forward Overhead (PM and flightdecksolutions) (not finished yet)
EFIS Capt/Co-pilot (PM and flightdecksolutions)
MCP (PM and flightdecksolutions)
Captains PFD/ND (PM)
Upper EICAS (PM)
Gear leverer (flightdecksolutions)
Co-pilot PFD/ND (PM)
Captains CDU (PM and Touchscreen technology)
Lower EICAS (PM)
Co-pilot CDU (PM andTouchscreen technology)
THQ (Homemade after blueprints from the web, cannot rembember the designer right now)
Other features:
PMDG 737 software (will be phased out when the overhead is ready)
Squawkbox
Yokes from CH products
Pedals from CH products
Hardware/software interface from OpenCockpits
We claim to have at least 85% of the 737 systems up and running.
More on our project later (perhaps some photos too;))
