indyz 1 #2 July 9, 2003 That's not bad, but he really needs to buy a few UGCIs and us them to put together a replica cockpit with working switches. And. What the hell? He went to all that trouble and he's flying the glider? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #13 July 9, 2003 QuoteYou can at least play one on TV. Wowsers! I love flight sims but this guy obviously likes them a bit more than I do. Kris, this guy is a nothing! A nothing! Do you hear me? Get your hands on the June/July issue of Air & Space Smithsonian and read the article with pix about nine guys who have built full-on flight sims. We're talking working instruments hooked up to the 'puter, salvaged F16 cockpits to house it all in, de-armed ejection seats, etc. I'm serious, dude, these folks have real obsessions about their FS. Unfortunately, the online mag gives a short description of the article, but no pix online as of today. The feller in that pic is obviously on his way, but he ain't there yet! Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TB99 0 #19 July 9, 2003 The amount of money spent on those computers could've gotten him a private pilot's license!! Think about the thousands of dollars on the floor there? You can get a PPC (Private Pilot's Certificate) nowadays for roughly $3k. Nothing beats the real thing. Trailer 11/12 was the best. Thanks for the memories ... you guys rocked!
