Hello old friends!I've been, um.. somewhat busy over the past year or so... got married, working on a house, you know.. all those family things.One would think that with a new wife, that other hobbies would take a back seat. Well, in between remodeling and such, I have been slowly working and adding to my 777 sim.Here are but a few pics I took tonight, just to show that I'm still in the game! :-)http://12.228.99.170/SimPicsTo date: I have the overhead LCD projector. The forward panels are from FDS. Throttle quadrant from FDS (Purists will note the blue LED backlighting in the flap indicator... hey.. I'm experimenting!)Perhaps the most intricate and daunting assembly is the throttle quadrant. What you see is only part of the story. With Autothrottles in mind for later addition, there's much more beneath the surface. A series of levers, wheels and friction joints compliment the assembly and it's ready to accept a high-torque drive assembly as soon as I can locate the proper linkage.The throttle quadrant has taken me nearly 6 months of solid work to get to 90% completion.Everything you see is on it's 3rd version. Some of you may remember the early prototypes!Theres' a lot here, but, a keen eye will say there's so much more to go.. like.. where's that overhead panel?Enjoy!Ray Sotkiewicz
