Looking great! Having the MIP ready is a milestone.
I know the feeling when things come together, and it's a nice piece of the puzzle you got there.

Whats next?

Thanks Nax!

FDS CDU is on the way, as well as a bracket for the CPFlight EL MCP and dual EFIS. Already have a Rev Sim TQ and throttle and the older FDS dual Nav and COM radios plus a pedestal.

Will likely grab an ACE yoke, then get to work on an FDS Overhead.

Once the house is built and I get my space back, I will be buying the shell and hanging the 3 projectors

Almost finished the backlighting this weekend. This FDS IBL lighting is awesome. Perfect coloring to the NG and no dead spots! I'm impressed.
