Really Cool Stuff Grizzly! I have to agree with your thoughts on Genes ideas too, way more awesome than a pool table or even Ms. Pac Man table!

Ooooo, I like that green lighting over the MFD panels. That really looks tough, probably makes it a lot easier to fly, too, when it's so dark like that. Nice job.

Ripcord

Here is my small pit.

GrizzlyT that is one awsome set up! Between you and Goupil's pit all I can do is

Now that is just awesome Grizzly. Great job!

Now wait just a second.... You're flying an F-15 with an *F-16* HOTAS? For shame!

Thanks Gene but as long as I'm going to my accept shame, it should be for the right reason.
While I may have taken a few too many design liberties (given the lack of available info), let me just say, There ain't no fast movers in this old rotorhead's hanger!
The pit back there in the shadows is supposed to be a RAH-66 pit. So technically, I'm flying a Comanche with an F-16 stick.


Although, if Thrustmaster ever made good on their promise, of multiple choices of inter-changable stick grips for the Cougar, I might actually have something a little more attack helo like by now!

I still accept my shame, though.

Well you should've known they were going to screw us as soon as they kicked the Cougar designer to the curb after it was released.

What surprises me is that nobody has stepped up to the plate and started to offer add-on grips for the Cougar. (Is the Cougar even manufactured any longer?)

Hey all,
More than a year ago, I asked you to show off your pit as a source of inspiration for mine. Several rebuilts, a marriage and careerchange and a pregnant wife later...
...I had to settle for a flight desk with a small centre console to house my avionics because well, there isn't any room in the house left for what I had in mind with the baby coming and all. (as you can see, the laundry rack is right next to it and that's a tight fit for the room.
Anyway, I figured I'd show what I have come up with in the end. Or should I say: the beginning, because the ideas just keep coming!

Did you build or buy that right console? If you built it yourself, what an incredible job. It's very professional looking.

Monk, I so feel for you. We're due in August and it's really pinched my budget.
