September 7, 200817 yr I was browsing Best Buy website and came across this Saitek - Pro Flight Switch Panel http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1218006355039I haven't heard of it and I thought others might be interested..Larry Larry Falcone No matter where you go............... ...................there you are............

September 8, 200817 yr Me like!Considering the other makers charge more than my first car for just one component,looks like a deal.I have the landing gear mapped to my Saitek x52 but just having a gear lever to throw would make it worth it to me.Thanks
September 8, 200817 yr Hi Larry,Wow! My first instinct was oooh, I gotta have that!I'm a bit leery though as I don't see it anywhere on the Saitek site. This is on my watch list now. A little trim wheel would have made it perfect but, I'd grab it nontheless.Regards,Jeff
September 8, 200817 yr Yeah I like the light switches too. But the key/ignition switch would not be my first pick to start my 747. Wonder how it connects, USB?
September 8, 200817 yr Yeah, it's definately for GA aircraft. I wouldn't bother if all I flew were jets. Sure would be nice for all my recip stuff.Regards,Jeff
