November 4, 200322 yr That is perfect!! Now all I have to do is figure out how to make the DXF file into fullscale in TurboCad 9pro, print, and I have fullsize cockpit!!!!

November 4, 200322 yr I wish I had such infor about the a320 ...Does anyone knows where can I get such info for the a320 ?Soon I will be sending some photos of my finished A320 MCDU ...Thanks,Cadu
November 4, 200322 yr Tuomas:>>I want a printer like that as well! Till he retired from British Airways Engineering, my father had a printer in his offices that was a photo-quality colour inkjet, using 3 metre wide roll fed paper! Thing cost well over 100,000 quid tho :-xxrotflmao
November 4, 200322 yr ... and every print job required you to change the ink jet cartidges 12 times! :-lolCheers, Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
November 5, 200322 yr Actually, I just printed the sideview of a 727 cockpit (the upper portion) and used 52 sheets of paper with same ink cartridge! I just have to figure out how to make the 737 views into full scale and then I can print all the shapes and then start cockpit building straight away (as the English would say)!
November 24, 200322 yr Hi manThe drawings that you have published are mine, I believe that what a minimun to do is to say who are the author of them, and to request permission to me to publish them, does not seem to you?Pedro Bibiloni
December 30, 200322 yr Hi Pedro,Do you think you could publish the drawings again somewhere?I find many people are looking for the right dimensions?Thx in advance
December 30, 200322 yr Hi Pedro!Im sorry for not mention you, the author, in the repost. This is not by disrespect to you, but becaus i didnt know you were the source.I can do a repost and attack your name to the drawings...If you want the cred, put your name in the drawings so people know who to thankCheers!/ Olle
February 24, 200422 yr G'Day It's finally time to start putting all the pieces together, and I was hoping to get the B737 cockpit dimensions as outlined in this thread. Unfortunately, the link for the CAD drawings is dead. Does anyone have these drawings they could send across to me, or attach to this thread? Thanks so much!
April 29, 200422 yr Yeah, I'd like these dimensions as well. Can someone post them again? I wish that link wasn't dead. :-(
April 29, 200422 yr Have a look at the download section of www.simcockpit737.tkThere you'll find Pedro Biboni's AutoCAD drawing of the 737NG
April 30, 200422 yr There are also JPG versions @www.737simbuilders.comZK-SHBIf it isn't Boeing, I'm not going.http://www.737simbuilders.com/
