Well, some of you may know me already from other sites.   I am Scott Wegner, aka XOrionFE.    I live in Sugar Grove, IL.     I have been working heavily on Lear building with Eric Tomlin (which is who I found this site through) over the past year.    After having problems getting panels made decided to buy a cnc and have a go at them myself which has taken the better part of 6 months to get up to speed but I am happy to say I am making good progress.

My other passion beside the Lear has been the Cessna Citation Mustang and its G1000 cockpit.  I have some vidoes up on youtube of this setup.

I drive folks I know nuts because I am back and forth between these two builds.    In addition to simbuilding I also have my Private Pilots license and am in the middle of earning an instrument rating.   I fly a C172 out of Aurora, IL with full G1000 Glass Cockpit and the GFC 700 Autopilot.   Nice setup to be sure.....

Finally, as my screenname suggests, a long time ago, I served as a flight engineer in the US Navy Reserves on the Lockheed P-3 Orion.   I miss those days.

Well thats all about me.....

Glad to see many of you here.

Thanks for coming to visit here Scott.  I hope you add it to the list of stops in your daily routine..

You do have a lot on your plate right now, but I am sure the sim build is helping your real life flying, and if not..  It will in the future.

Welcome, and I look forward to seeing your pics and vids.
