June 15, 200421 yr HiA while back I asked for measurements or drawings of a cessna c172.Well, I am now almost there: (more pictures soon, when I get more done)http://www.skottes.net/CessnaC172teaser.jpgPlease note that this is not intended to be an accurate representation of the cessna, more an experience for "ordinary" people. It has to be kept simple otherwise people get confused. Also it is "mobile" so it can be dissasembled to go through standard doors and so om.The project is part of a larger conference called Universitarium, and is held every summer in aalborg. Its held to inspire high school students to continue on to the university of aalborg.Enjoy and stay tuned for more pics of the interior as well (this baby has a sweeeet system on board)Flight Simulator computer:P4 3.0 Ghz ATI Radeon 9800XT 2561 GB dual channel memoryGigabit networkSB live DigitalLogitech
June 15, 200421 yr Neat!Waiting to see the inside..But why CH? My feeling has been that they, while better than your ordinary PC joystick, are still rather inprecise and too "plastic" for a real simulator..Of course it all depends on the resources and time available, which is understandable.//Tuomas
June 16, 200421 yr Not bad at all...About CH products. It takes quite a lot time and effort to build a decent yoke and pedals so honestly it is quite good choice until you have time to build better ones.Cheers,Joni

They are the only reasonable choice if you dont want to spend $1000 to yoke + pedals or cannot do them yourself (or dont have the time to do it)//Tuomas

June 16, 200421 yr I LOVE it!!!!!! NICE work..... Look forward to seeing your progress:)BTW.... I knew I should of been building a C172 rather then a A340.... again, it looks fantastic.
June 17, 200421 yr Cool!I'm building a C172 sim myself, but I don't have the space to do such a thing!Look forward to see those "inside" pictures!Cheers,
