February 27, 200521 yr I have recently run across three books that are based on STUNNING photographs of actual aircraft cockpits.There is a two book series featuring every thing from Warbirds to Cold War era fighters. Another book from the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum featurs everything from the Wright Bros to spacecraft.They cost 25 bucks each but we all have birthdays etc. These books give us a chance to compare the sim cockpits to the ACTUAL ones in brilliant, close up detail.For the budget conscious, the current issue of Pilot Journal (March/April) has an article on the Warbirds cockpit book and has 2 page spread photos of a B-24,P38,Messerschmidt Bf 109 (I was only aware of the ME 109), P51, Spitfire and a Zero. The mag is only 6 bucks and the pics are worth that.www.pilotjournal.comI have attached a link to Amazon with all 3 books on the same page.Enjoy,Jimhttp://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/155...6341077-0368632
