Post by: jackpilot on November 26, 2017, 08:02:00 AM
Cold and dark. SimAvionics running with some FDS new hardware , all cold except the RMI (supposed to be mechanical!
( backlighting still has to be shut off with PSU green wire))

Looks awesome Jack!!!!
I'm inspired!!! Do you recognize the Capt. yoke?
I have made a little progress lately too.
I finished my backlighting (all the lights are turned up to 11 so it's a little bright in the pictures)
On the overhead I was able to get really close to the FDS panel light. The center and lower light panels are FDS and all the others are my own solution and I am very happy with the results.

Oh Bob.....
You're funny  :laugh:

I still have to re-wire the entire overhead, finish up some of the guts of the throttle, link the rudder pedals, re-install the computers, rebuild the make-shift wrap around screen, mount the seats, install P3d 4.1, all scenery, Prosim, and finish all the interior....and other stuff.
Harrumph,
Maybe when my youngest daughter leaves for college, she's 7.
