Just joined this forum after lurking for quite a while.

Currently considering extending my simpit, which consists of 3 screens on a TH2G and a fourth one built into a home made dashboard on a networked pc (with a touch screen attached) to display instruments and Pete Dowson's button screen (hence the touch screen), which I have used to make my own MFD. I also have some Go Flight Navcom gear.
I am looking to extend my instrument panel, which will never be more than a generic one, as sometimes I like to fly heavies and sometimes my SF260 for aerobatics ( which I watch from outside the cockpit using tower view in FSX).

I am looking to add an EFIS panel next, built into the MIP. and to this end am investigating keyboard emulators but haven't yet discovered how to power and work LEDs. The EFIS will use this emulator for all controls- I hope.
Eventually I suppose I will add other things as the fancy takes me, after all a year ago all I had was a pc and the TH2G!

Thanks guys for the welcome. On a forum that is worldwide its amazing to see Yorkshire represented by the first 2 replies, both just up the road from me. In fact I regularly deliver to Brid once a fortnight for work!

I will post some phots as soon as I can.

Thanks again

Den
