Hi All

My name is, Henrique, 52 years old.  I am from Oporto Portugal and live near the LPPR airport. A few years ago I bought Flight Simulator 98 for one of my children. After sometime FS98 become an entertainment for the father instead of the son.  My love for the flight simulation gradually increased. Begin buying magazines, books, hardware stuff like yoke, rudder pedals, Goflight modules, TripleHead2Go, aso. To increase my knowledge I begin visiting sites and forums related to the simulation world. A dream took over my mind. To build a 737 cockpit.
After some years the dream becomes true. As you know it will never be completed. We always want to improve, sometimes we forget the main purpose of a cockpit replica...to fly...

Here you can see some photos: http://img829.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=dsc00057s.jpg

Hope you enjoy and give suggestions for improvement.

I would like to thank all the anonymous people that made posts that were useful to my cockpit construction in this forum and specially to those in Cockpitbuilders.com that replied several times to my e-mails asking for help:
