You can also do a search on the internet for Hornet Cut-away-view and you will find things like this.

For the throttle you can use only the upper part of the assembly discarding the box base.

It's pretty quiet here! Do any of you guys have VRS Superbug? I would love to try it online and talk about pit building! Send me a PM if you are interested!

The F/A-18 pit conversation has spread to SimHQ, VRS, Seven-g, Eagle Dynamics, Thesimulatorstore.com and few more forums that I can't remember now. It would be nice to have one place to talk about F/A-18 pit building.

This thread seems to be dead. I wonder how many have given up on building a F/A-18 simpit. I am still trying my best to complete mine smile

Does anyone know the manufacturer or P/N of the canopy bow chart light?

Hello,
I got the front panel layers measurement from a real Hornet.

Hello,
Here are a few pixs of the the VRS Superbug software running in the Microsimulators sim pits. The 2 sims were used at the Air show called Sun-n-Fun located in Florida the last week of May.

The sims have been around since 1999 but have been newly fitted with FSX and VRS SuperBug along with the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS.

We only had 4 candid missions because of the short time frame before the show. We did 4 Television shoots which was cool. I Did a 3 wire trap for them smile









Tsukasa "TUKA" Furukawa all the way from Japan got some special stick time after the show.

Youtube video here..watch in High Def.
