Title: Hi from Athens... 737NG single PC project...
Post by: Nick1150 on November 22, 2010, 08:59:45 AM
Hi there,

My name is Nick and I live in Athens, Greece. I am 35 y.o. and I am simming almost a decade.

3 years ago I went further and realised that FS has changed over the years, so one more screen was added, and then one more, and then one more, and then a yoke, and then a MCP, and then, then, then..... you know how it goes right ?  ;D

So after almost 1 year of research, and 8 months of building I now find my self with a SINGLE PC 737-800 home cockpit based on the PMDG 737 software with a dual seat 737NG trainer from cockpitsonic, CP_flight modules, Revolution Sim Products Pro version on the way, and many more to follow.  :P 

So never say I'm done in this hobby  :)

I feel very nice to be here, and I will soon create a thread with pictures from where I started and where I am now.

Thanks again for the tons of info shared in this board,

Regards

Nick

PS. This is how I started...

And this is where I am now, and have a lond way to go...

Hi guys,

Thanks for the warm welcome  :)

I already feel like home  ;D

I know my setup is not something big, or fancy, but it is my setup and I love flying with it.

As for many people in this planet, Ian was an inspiration for me during all this time, and his site was a treasure of information for my setup. On top of all, Ian has helped me out in many little and big steps on the way, have asked many stupid questions to him, and I really want to thank him from the bottom of my heart. Thanks Ian for everything, and as promised the beers are already in the fridge  :idiot:
