London to München to wring it out tonight. No hic-ups or problems except missing my second turn on the departure by about 30 seconds. Glad I wasn't under ATC control. London Control would have had a cow.

Sure is nice to have gauges!

Taken at 1/25 @ f/2.8, 100 ISO, ambient lighting.

Wow that looks really nice Mike. I can now see the advantage in using real world panels, it just looks more.....real! Nice touch by Jack too, all you need is a TH2GO, two more screens and your there ;)

Thanks guys!

I'm mulling around a WidevieW solution right now.

I pretty much had to use a real MIP. I could have never laid all of that out correctly on aluminum or wood and gotten it right.

Yes, second try. The first didn't turn out too well as I cut them just a mm or two bigger than the hole. These are a few mm's larger and turned out better.

Looks really great! I'm in the planning stages. Haven't picked what type yet. Very inspiring. Thanks. Mike E.

Yes, looks really good. I'm in the planning stages too. I know it will be the B744 and that's all so far :D

A nice one Mike
