Title: What I believe a properly equipped cockpit looks like!
Post by: jarbo on May 01, 2011, 02:36:52 AM
Here's my version.

Myself and dieo for Friday night FSO

joysticks/throttles mounted at desk level

Before a 2nd pull; rinse your glass out

also view of the Warthog mount below desk level

Zoom-in on the taps (right tap wasn't loaded; so had to protect against a misfire)

My fully qualified co-pilot (anchoring the computer for hi-G turns)

Gotta have the right container for tap beer

In case beer doesn't cut it; but scotch/whiskey will

In case the tap goes dry or Guiness is in order

  That's because that is a man cave! U didn't see the no woman allowed sign?  :ROFL I am sure you will want a man cave someday when Ur not trying to hump cracks in the wall ,or anything else that moves.... :D That usually comes a few years past the first little hair you notice :P

Yeah. The wife frowned on the urinal on the wall.

The dog is not allowed in the house, except the man cave.  The basement windows are at garden level, so i built the dog run on that side of the yard.  I then removed the window and made a "window insert" that has a doggie door.  Still working on the final config, but you'll get the idea.

I believe one of those bottles is a local (to Jarbo's area) whiskey, micro brew (not sure what the term is for whiskeys).  Bottle near the center on the second shelf.  Maybe Jarbo can tell us what that is, the name escapes me at the moment.  (It's the whiskey with the hand written label)

Absolutely golden there...time to put my plans into action and build my setup with the cooler for my beer. I was wondering how I could build the frig into the side of the pit in order to be able to open the frig while in flight on the long outbound or return flights in FSO.

My keg setup is actually rdy for 2 torpedo kegs.  I have done local microbrews, but I go through it too fast.  I have been considering putting two valves in the line so the dead line can be switched to the available keg.
