So it's been an age since I posted but saw Mike Shericks F-18 sim post and some other old friends posting so thought I would drop a line.  I am sitting in Las Cruces, NM after paying a nice annual "sim weekend" visit to Mike with some of our friends including FredK whom you all know as well.  As for me, I finally have my 737-800 back up and flying and have been testing lately with MSFS2024 with success.  I also as Mike mentioned in another post...built an F-18 DCS simulator.  I also have built a Cirrus SR-22 simulator for instrument proficiency training for real world flying.  On that note, two years ago I began flying in the real world again after passing a flight review and am working on my instrument rating.  I bought a 1998 Cessna 182S and rebuilt the panel with all new Garmin Avionics.  It is really state of the art.  I am working on my actual instrument rating which I hope to finish up by late spring early summer. Attached are some recent pictures.
Hope everyone is doing well.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to pop in and say hello! Been a long time since I've been here.  Still flight simming and flying A319,320, 321 for United. 

Been off for a few months with a broken hand and been on the sim a lot more than usual.  They sure have come a long way since my 737 build 10-15 years ago!!

Hope all is well!

As long as Sam is in for another Year, we will be back for November 2025...  This year putting together a normal Team, so we also are going to be looking for some volunteers for This November.

Hi Warren,

Good to hear you are also building an F-18 Sim.  Fortunately, an F-18 Sim doesn't take up too much floor space.   Post photos if you have a chance... Best wishes!

I've got plenty of space for people to crash!

Just for the record, I'll chime in that I'm glad to see the team back up and flying.  I am sad I no longer live in Tampa so I could join you (last year - and next year).
My goal is to get team together here in Greece for this year, flying my sim.

That's my other project too, Mike.
I'm building openhornet cockpit...  what an awesome project that is.  My problem now is space.  my 737 is taking up 30 square feet of space and that doesn't leave much room for my F18.  I really don't want to get rid of the pool table!

Your setup looks great though.
