Beautiful work Robert as always.  Must feel nice to get to a flying state.  I'm looking forward to spending quite a few hours in our 777 during Worldflight next week.

I assume your using the PMDG 777 with undocked panels?  Your earlier photos showed you testing the avionics, was this a separate package or PMDG?

Ken.

Ken, I realized I didn't completely answer your question. I am using undocked PMDG panels for the upper and lower EICAS  and Project Magenta for the PFD/ND and CDU.

@Mike, Thanks for the kind comments and look forward to flying with you soon!

FINALLY made some glareshield covers and added seats. The seats are from a 737, which I repainted and changed the armrest fabric.

Looking awesome Robert!  Are you going to use any ARINC429 stuff in the sim?

I appreciate that Rob! The plan is to use ARINC heavily and use my modules without modification. I'm looking into using Arduino to do it if possible. Really disappointed V1avionics.com fell through :-(

Thanks Lance! I use three 70" LED TVs and a single computer with Eyefinity. Can't remember the make and model of the video card, but my FS computer powers all three TVs and my upper and lower EICAS (DualHead2Go connected to seperate video card).

I hear ya on the V1 deal!  Actually thanks to that falling thru I went with the older non 429 stuff to build my 732 Sim.  I to am using Arduino based interface to interface all my stuff.  It is powerful and capable for sure.

I saw some of your instruments. They look great! Hopefully I'll be able to get my units working plug-n-play and hopefully that doesn't take another decade... lol

Robert your work looks fantastic! Congrats

Thank you very much!
