That was the price tag for a "real" 737 simulator. His DIY version cost him about a hundred thousand Dollars US.

If I had the money I'd have a B-17G cockpit and if you turned around facing the other way would be my 109F cockpit.  :rock


Seeming as I'm eating ramen noodles tonight, I'll keep dreaming.  :cry

The translation would be: The professional simulators cost comparison 21 million.  And when we talk about dollars.

Two guys up in Alta, Northern Norway has taken their flightsim hobby to the extreme. The guy on the left in the video is a pilot, and flies 737s for Norwegian. The guy on the right in Kjetil, who owns the simpit. He's a truck driver by profession.



Pffff.  *sniff* <nose in the air>   ;)

While I'll admit my pit is not as impressive, it is a lot of fun and more flexible i.e. combat sim, civilian flight sim, space flight sims, tanking sims, etc etc.   :D

I really do need to post some pics soon....

 :rofl

reminds me of that song


Next time you're found, with your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned, so look around

Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant

But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

So any time you're gettin' low
'stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant

When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam

but he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes

So any time you're feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam

All problems just a toy balloon
They'll be bursted soon
They're just bound to go pop

Oops there goes another problem kerplop
Oops, there goes another problem kerplop
Oops, there goes another problem kerplop
Kerplop!



like I said...its good to have dreams, and both of ya can dream about me all ya want. :o
