    Re: Norwegian 727-200 project

    My sim room is starting to take shape. The base is nearly finished and the curved screen is getting there.





    Look honey, I built you a walk in closet!

    Re: Norwegian 727-200 project

    Things are definately coming back together









    I finally sourced some fire handles!


    My custom made annunciators are in place. These are clear plexi glass which I have painted black around the edges. Annunciators displayed on the LCD screens will light through the plexi glass and will hopefully resemble the real deal.


    The sim room is coming together as well!


    It's been a long day, I'll kick back with a glass of wine now! Cheers!

    Re: Norwegian 727-200 project

    I've been working on the steering mechanism lately. After a few tweaks it works about right. I haven't done any interfacing yet though.
    Probably not the most elaborate piece of engineering, but it's simple and it works. No spring return on the ailerons yet, but the gas struts centers the elevator nicely.

    The window frames are taking shape. Lots of measurements, angles and sawdust to make that happen!!

    The curved wall is up. By far the most difficult part of the build thus far! 3 layers of paint, and I'm still not happy with the finish!

    Hi Roppeca.

    The curved screen is 220 degrees. I only have one projector as of yet though, so I won't have to much of a wrap around view just yet. More projectors to be added later.
