Title: New member would like to build Cessna 172 cockpit
Post by: Votography on May 03, 2013, 08:08:35 PM
Hi everyone,

I am a new member and would like to build a Cessna 172 cockpit this summer.  I would like to see current members' photos to give me a few ideas. 

I would also like to know more about hardware and setting up 3 monitors using MS FS X.

Please feel free to post here or send me a email at votography@tds.net.

Thank you all!

Khanh

Welcome aboard.

As you have direct access to it, trawl Ebay for parts.
The front panel is a widely available item
Take your time to pick carefully.

The 172 is easy to replicate.
