No place to set up a HOTAS system though.  It looks like its intended for civie aviation.   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif)

Ask ==AC== on AGW, my old CO from Warbirds, for a post pic of his set-up, he's recreated a F6F cockpit, fully enclosed.

SOB has a barfridge right nest to the chair also.......I believe he uses a twist stick so the rudder pedals are not necessary.

You dunna know fun till you fly with a CH Yoke  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

I switch periodically between the CH FSY and my older CH Combat stick...the yoke leaves you fatigued after a good dog fight  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Only problem is dead-bands have to be set really high because it never returns to an exact center point, so precision movments are difficult. Very good for Buffs and (historically I guess) the P-38.
