Hello Gents,

03.2017 update:

It deserves an update for sure. We have just launched the brand new web site: VIPERWING.com / F-16, F-18, F-35 Fighter Jet Simulator Cockpits , offering beloved F-16, as well as F-18, F-35... Frames and full simulators (Hybrid or fully physical), delivering worldwide. I hope you like it!

Original 2013 post:

With a great pleasure I want to introduce you our baby www.viperwing.com - we've worked on this for months. First, analyzing everything available, then planning the shape of Viper Wing F-16 frame. It exists thanks to great people, community and inspiration for pushing it further. I just hope this offer will find a few fans here and there. This way you can focus on equipment - screens or physical instruments and get in the air faster smile
The cutouts may be adjusted to your needs (glass cockpit or switches). If you do not have too much space, notice that side consoles may be unscrewed easly in the middle length from the inside and you're getting compact pit (then you are getting side consoles' fronts only, for instruments).
You may order front only or the pit without ACES seat, or just without side consoles... Whatever you need. Just write an e-mail at simulator@viperwing.com and do not forget to send your postal code.
Shipping worldwide.

Thank you,

Why is the headbox on the ejection seat missing? I've seen a LOT of ACES II seats that look like this.

Hey Raider. Congratilations on your new endevor. Best of luck yo you. The pits look great, great plataform to get one started.

Gene I belive the reason a lot of builders leave the "Headbox" out of ACES II replicas it's because that headbox it's actually the parachute container, and a lot of guys with ACES II in their pits install real parachute containers in their replicas ACES. You also have the option to build a replica parachute container, but it involves some fabric parts if done properly (sides and top).

It's not like those containers are common though. From where I sit, I'd rather see a complete seat with the option of adding my own real box if I've got one. (I do, but many don't)

The cockpit tub is an excellent design though. (It's such a shame it's an F-16 though. *runs*) biggrin

WOW :-)
I'm glad It's not only myself to put some knowledge and woodworking machines to good use for flight simmers.

Congrats, as a furniture producer, and fresh rudder pedals producer I know what it takes to build such a thing and keeping a decent price for it. Price is really good compared to work hours/materials involved.

So, keep up the good work and wish you luck and good sales.

Gents, I am sharing with you the first official promo pic and video of full Viper Wing cockpit in Prague (Czech Republic)! What's also cool about it, in the sim center (called Simulation of Reality) real life fighter jet pilots-instructors are taking the experience to a whole new level! The Viper Wing cockpit which I delivered, is running with 15 screens alltogether (3 of these are projectors for over 5m wide, curved screen).

I am SO PROUD to inform that Rockwell Collins (corporation from UK specializing in professional aviation electronic solutions, also for military industry), has used my VIPER WING F-16 inspired simulator frame for the demonstrator system, at the open house held at the new Rockwell Collins Simulation and Training Center of Excellence! smile

Here you have a short review of their great solution:

Thank you, J.A.K. People keep asking me that and I understand it would be cheaper but I would really like to keep that quality on a highest possible level. When you count your time and consider the finish quality it's not that much.

Cheers,
Raider

Hello Gents!
I put some work lately into my VIPER's 2014 version and updated the gallery at www.viperwing.com
As I finally worked out the affordable curved screen projection product, for use with just one short throw projector (!), I think it will be best to put it in separate thread ( http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3939875/Affordable_curved_screen_proje#Post3939875 ). Here is the preview (yes, it is one, short throw projector!):



Cheers,
