Looks good!


I made the bezels long time ago from a real MFD. I just have the parts..... no molds

I got the knobs from the simulatorstore.com


These are the parts I made from the real Hornet



Cheers!

Pretzel, Where did you get the Ejection seat handle for the FA-18? I have been trying to find one everywhere but had no luck

would it be possible to display a screen behind you for the mirrors? Maybe curved 3 screens so you could also look back and see wings and good rear view.. not sure if you can drive thatt many screens

one big touch 24" and you are all set the easiest cockpit in the world (after the f35), personally i still prefer physical buttons in my pit. You should stay with the current revision.

It wouldn't be worth chasing down unless you got the NATOPS for that particular revision of aircraft.

Wouldn't get too down - remember there won't be any hi fidelity sim software for this until say, 2025, so your pit has a bit of life in it yet!
