Hi Guys,
I have finally got the Sim and 6dof Motion Platform both interfaced and running together, with the motion platform wiring and harnessing finalized. Testing shows that all is functioning correctly. Now I can proceed to build the steel Upper Platform and Flight Deck. Once those assemblies are completed, I will move the Sim from its current static location, and position it on top of the 6dof motion platform. Below are a couple of photos showing the progress...
Regards,
Mike
Very impressive progress!

Nice work Mike! We need to have a simbuild event when it is time to put the shell on the platform. Helping hands of knowledge are always good. :)

Thanks for the comments guys. A Sim Build Fest... Now that is a good idea. I'll keep you posted on when I'll be installing the Nose Section.
As a side note... I just finished a flight from KLGA to KCHS with the motion platform active. It is interesting to see the motion cues active - especially approaching Charleston Airport where the hurricane winds and heavy rains are still quite active. I flew the approach with ActiveSky Next providing the real-time weather realism, significant crosswind and breaking out at 200 feet - a nail bitter all the way down to the ground. Give it a try today...

Looking great Mike! I love your work! See you in November.
Full of envy, looks amazing. Maybe one day.
