Hi all,
I would like to introduce myself here to say hi to all of you from New Zealand. I am a flight simulator enthusiast with about 70 hours real world flying experience (PPL). I have had an interest in flying for many years until my partner purchased a trial flight in a Grumman AA-1C for the first time, in 2007. Since then I have become what I would call semi-obsessed with all things related to aviation.
I work in I.T and enjoy it. I have only recently dipped my feet into building my own gear after realising the stuff out there is either too expensive or doesn't have the customisations I want. So, I started my journey and too show you how committed I am, you can see here...
Project Cockpit - Minus (http://min.us/mSwZ4mjHfyqBx)
I was kindly offered the bits for this little project and modified it to suit my needs. I am currently awaiting my (real) yoke from a Beechcraft C-23 and I will be making my own flight control yoke system.
I'm sure I will be firing some questions around here in the forum and hope there will be people who will oblige me.
Some real world aviation photos here for those who may be interested to see my obsession;
