turbulence chairs?

Featured Replies

are there any special chairs out there that you can plug into the computer and fs9 and realisticaly experience turbulence like you're in the back row of a 747-400, or feel the bumps in the tarmac as the plane taxis to the runway?

There are people whom fit subwoofers to the underside of chairs to feel vibrations but I have no idea how real that feels. Also I'm sure that doesn't simulate turbulences.On the other hand I don't think that you could simulate turbulence on the chair alone. You would move while your controls and panels wouldn't. I thon't believe that would feel real.

I have subwoofers under my chair...Well, they're called Bass pumps and don't produce any noice by themselves.But I can assure you: when I'm lifting off in my space shuttle, I can feel the motors roar.

This is what I did . I went out and purchased this chair called the" Audio Chair Rocker with Arms" found at target.Just build a small stand to place under the chair and you will have the best cockpit seat with awsome sound! I have the "bass shaker" and this rocker chair blows it out of the water! http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=1-...asin=B000ET9M6Uhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/157708.jpg
