Awesome! Thanks for the post, although of course now the idea wheels in my head are spinning at a rate faster than my wallet can keep up!

Just as an aside... does it drive anyone else crazy that they kept switching back and forth from an Airbus simulator and a 737?

What I found very interesting was the double throw on the visuals.

It does look good though.

Off down the hardware store, seeya later

Amazing Video.  I just love it...  I could watch that over and over again.

I liked it too, but it was obvious to me that it was geared for the general public, not anyone who is intimately familiar with transport aircraft or aircraft in general.

When I clicked on the link I expected a time lapsed film of a sim build like that I've seen of aircraft builds.
