Title: Intro...
Post by: geneb on September 21, 2009, 06:35:27 AM
Hey folks, my name is Gene Buckle and I've been a simulator geek for the last...41 years. *laughs*

I've got two projects.  The first project is an F-15C cockpit section that I'm turning into a flight simulator.  You can see it here: http://www.f15sim.com (http://www.f15sim.com).

The other project I've got is a line of DIY simulator cockpits, designed to be affordable to build by just about anyone.

The site for my "personal" version of the first cockpit is here: http://www.simpits.org/geneb. (http://www.simpits.org/geneb.)  The site for the plans is at http://www.geneb.org/pitkit. (http://www.geneb.org/pitkit.)

I'm looking forward to seeing this place grow!

Welcome here Gene.
Your F15 panels are impressive...

Thanks guys.

The F-15C project is on hold until my '109 is done and flyable.  After that I've got a Grob 115 cockpit to finish designing and prototyping. :D

I figure I'll get the F-15 done about the time I'm too old to climb up to it. :)
