I always dreamed of building the most realistic flight simulators possible. After many years of building wooden cockpits, I was still not getting the sense of realism of a real airplane cockpit. That's when I decided to build flight simulators from real airplanes .
So many general aviation frames are being discarded for scrap metal or sold for parts. I found a way to interface many of the real components with the flight simulator software.
The immersion and experience is so much better. These devices can be used for flight training or just for fun and entertainment, it works for both.
I use the same technologies that certified flight school flight simulators are using. In fact, one of my simulators got certified by Transport Canada and is currently used at a local flight school for flight Instruction
There are many flight simulators on the market today, but most of them are made to be used as desktop devices with a joystick and a monitor in front of you. This takes away from the immersion and realism. I am not a pilot, but after a 35 years in the IT industry, I decided to build a cockpit that would give me that experience of sitting in a real plane. Combining the knowledge of computers and electronics with my passion for aviation has given me a unique set of skills so I could accomplish this.
