Captain Tarmac Lives!!!

Recommended Posts

I recently recieved an email asking if I knew what had happened to Captain Tarmac (aka Mel Ott), B747 pilot and all around good guy. Well, I am happy to report that Mel is alive and kicking and investing his retirement savings in monitors and computers. Mel sent me this photo of his simulation setup, and I thought (with Mel's permission of course) we should pass it along. So, without further ado, here is Mel's flight simming rig.... 15 monitors and 5 computers!!!!

Hehe,I'll bet his neighbors know when he starts simming...the lights dim!A great thing about his setup is that it can double as a tanning booth! :-lolHey Tom, did you ever get a chance to use that .gif I sent you? ;)Regards,Steve Dra

Thanks for sharing that with us Tom, that's truly amazing. Now I just have to figure out how to convince my wife that setting up something similar would be a "wise" investment :-lol
