HI all, I am getting ready to start on my first build and found your website while looking for resource information. My intended build is for a single seater fighter style cockpit with a 4 LCD display canopy for a more realistic fell. Wish me well and I will try to share what I can during the build.

Cool and welcome..
We have a few fighter pit builders here. Sounds like an ambitious build. Do you have a particular bird of choice your interested in?

Still looking at options. Current thought is F16 or R22. outer shell and canopy are going to be different, as i have an odd idea about how i want to mount the LCD's (kind of want to work through this before i start detailing in in case it does not work). With any luck i will start working on the seat this weekend (weather permitting..... 60% chance of rain right now :( ).
Do you know if any one has rough measurements or drafts of the primary control panels and chair? Getting the dimensions right is the first hurdle.
Thanks,
