I have seen first hand several times the work that it takes to convert an actual Boeing 737 shell for use in a flight simulator. Trust me, the work is immense and I personally would never ever try that even if someone gave it to me. My best recommendation is this one. I have seen it and it's great and very affordable (relatively speaking)

I would consider that a challenge and would take one if they were giving them away. Complete of course.

How could you not want the real thing for free?

Or, You can take advantage of being a Member of Mycockpit.org and order a Fiberglass Replica (Exact dimensions of a real shell) from one of our sponsors.

Two reasons. Because I'm not a glutton for punishment and because the flying part is more enjoyable to me than the building part. Different strokes for different folks .

And the building part when trying to strip a huge, extremely heavy, cumbersome shell with many sharp objects is much more than my stomach can take, especially when the only really important part is the interior anyway. But then again, I do have a sensitive stomach, so for anyone who likes the challenge, by all means go for it

I'm just a glutton for punishment.

Why else would I build a 727!
