Thanks! Soooooo I'm the only one here with one?

 

I have one, but it looks a lot like a desk or a kitchen table with a laptop on it and a Saitek Aviator on one side. Not too impressive in pictures.

So I'm still the only one here (Combat Ace) with one?

Talked with one of the guys I go to church with about building one for him. Found out he was a flight sim guy also and on how he has always wanted a 'pit. Now to decide on what style. Ghost's is nice, but I prefer the "bathtub" style where you drop in and it surrounds you more. We'll see.

 

I do like the dual monitor set-up though!

Build a 2 place side by side pit. Make her drive. Be her beeny, WSO, bear, or even her beer holder.

She will probably ask you to download the new patch and add ons for your relationship.

Are you kidding me? Mine looks like a wooden table and a plastic chair :blink: I do have mic and speakers and flight stick :good: Man who could afford something like that how much does that thing cost? Hey Ghost how long did it take you to get the rig like that and the cost? Edited by Viper6

So what kind then? F-111? A-6? TF-102? Ka-52? The possibilities!!

 

I'm thinking AD-5 / A-1E because I'm mentaly stuck behind a prop.

Or a P-3 Orion or an A3 Skywarrior. With 2 "seats" one would probably get popular enough for a 3rd to want to sit in as a flight engineer, EWO, or TACO.

Enough room for more with all the stuff we manage when we "fly"

I saw 1 in here about 2 months ago it was killer, I would be living in my garage if I set 1 of those up. Although I do have a cablejack and a porta heater in there .hmmm!

The entire project took me 3.5-4 hours to assemble and that’s from in the box, to flight. It probably would have taken me less time if I weren’t concerned about cable routing and the little things I concern myself with. I did add (other than my Throttle Quadrant modification) to the bottom of the side and forward panels, (underneath) cable clamps to keep them off the floor.

 

Pricing? Well:

Now I know what most of you are thinking. A set up like that (Sim Cockpit System FX and Cockpit Seat), that’s got to be way out of my budget. Well, for a limited time, you can get the Cockpit System FX for, holding onto your seat? Is your jaw wired shut?

$89.00!

The Cockpit Seat, $99.00
