Hi all,

I am very pleased to announce the arrival of our latest new addition to the family on Saturday the 15th of October, weighing in at 5.2 Kilograms. She has 3 feet and only one eye and blows a bit of wind, but the result is outstanding.

At long last my sim has a projector! http://www.epson.com.au/products/projector/emptw600.asp
My sim frame is 1.4metres wide and my forward view is 1.7metres wide and it gave me a vertigo buzz first ride, It works great! Bye, bye 19" monitor...

More pics coming soon.

Hi Gwyn,

Congratulations on the addition to your Flight-Sim project family. I hope the new little critter will give you much joy and happiness for years to come :lol:

I've been sitting here in my study admiring this beautiful piece of work and design. I'm just full of admiration. Then I read some good news about a new maybe-flightsimmer being born. Gongratulations from Norway to Gwyn and family.
Regards Paul Thomas
PS. My 3 year old grand-daughter also enjoy flightsimming.

Wow, that is some amazing work! I'm floored.

Congratulations on the new addition as well.

Thanks again guys for the +ve comments.
I haven't done too much to the sim since the projector arrived 3 weeks ago as I can't stop flying it! A 94" picture is amazing, it's exceeded my expectations and I'm very pleased with the Epson EMP-TW600.
The sim will be moving from the storeroom into the house soon and I will be switching to rear projection so I can commence building the roof section, can anyone tell me of a material to make the projection screen from that will display the image clearly on both sides? My sim will be at one end of a long room with the other end of the room becoming a home theatre, that's the plan anyway! When the sim is dismantled and removed from the storeroom I will get better pictures of it's construction.

I've heard of very good results using at least a 300 thread count white sheet.

You might want to experiment with something on-hand before investing in a quality king-size top sheet or two.
