A-10, F-15, F-16, and F-18 sticks and throttles. These sticks make Cougars look cheap ;)

They even offer some sticks for helos and heavy aircraft.

I hate to imagine the prices for these sticks.

Yeah, I found that once by randomly looking around the intarnet. I almost died of a heartattack when I saw the sticks. That F-18 simulator looks hawt.

they don't sell to the public though.

Go over to Frugal's World & do a search & you'll find an awful lot of stuff on them ...

Yuck! What a mess. Sounds like this company is a rip-off anyway (at least for consumer-grade business).

 

The joystick handles I can get... it was the throttles that were very interesting :)

After actually speaking to them (HIREVSIMS), they can keep them IMO.

I have found some industrial sources of real sticks. These companies make stuff like dual F-15 throttles and in one case, MiG-21 controls! I doubt they sell to joe consumer and I doubt I could afford their prices if they did, but I just might be sending out some emails.

(Btw, the T45 grip [last link] looks like some crazy Sci-Fi phaser... SET PHASERS TO KILL!)
