Click "Miscellaneous" tab and go through them until you come across "Advanced aviation training device".

Should be at the bottom of the first page.

It looks like an earlier version of the one found here.

I used those (actually I used the more advanced ones on the 2nd link), it's nothing special. The cockpit might be realistic so if you have a flight school you might want one to train people on procedures, but unless you get the right software (which I don't think exists for non-multi million dollar airplanes) your physics computer wont be realistic.


Your talking about this right:

I think it sold for $268.00

That was for the computer that runs it, 3 large screens, and the controls.

I kind of wish I had bought it but I'm busy with other projects at this time.
