747 throttle

Hi can anyone help me?
Can anyone send me some links to where I can get a 747 400 TQ built up or in kit form thanks.
Jake:)

dear jake i have the same problem if you find any kits for a 747 tq i am intrested i am building a 747-200 :D

Hi Sprio.
If I hear anything I will let you know.
Unfortunatly as I found out after this thread there are no current TQ's anywhere, but if any do come on the market I will be sure to let you know.
I have decided to try and make my own.
You could try this, but if not you could try real parts, from salvage.
Try the Airline Pilots Historical Society (www.oncealoft.com)
or Air Salvage International based in the UK. Unfortunatly this way is expensive thats why I havent done it, but you may want to.
I know its frustrating constantly searching but somthing is bound to come up.
I wish you the best of luck with your build.
Jake

thanks jake
i will go with your way try to build my own the site you gave me i have all ready ask thay do not have any yet but the are selling for about 4000 $
so i think building is much more beter!!!!!if i find eny thing before you i will let you know too the hard thing of building that i cant find the real dimentions
for the levers and so on witch is the frustraiting i will let you in in my progress
and if you find any thing please let me know thank:D

Hi Spiro.
I think thats the best way.
I knew when I started my sim that its an expensive hobby, but I think if you can try to save as much money as possible buy making as many things yourself as you can. There are somthing we obviously have to buy.
This may sound stupid but you could e-mail Boeing and ask them.
Jake

i agree with you on the building jake but i think that if i mail boeing and ask for deimentons on the throttle the will laugh in my face!!!!!!:p:p

Hi Spiro.
I understand what you mean, its up to you.
Its worth a try, but its up to you.
I knew someone who built a 777 sim and he got dimensions from Boeing.
But Ill have a look around for some dimensions for you.
Jake

thanks alot jake for your intrest i am thinking about it i might mail boeing
i havent got eneything to lose thanks again mate and i will fill you in on what
they will sead do you know the right e mail??:D

Hi Spiro.
Its no problem at all.
If you go on the website and look for a link that says "contact us" its at the very bottom of every page. When you click on the link another page opens with a list of different contacts like offices finance etc.
Im pretty cirtain it will be the link that says "Boeing Commercial Airplanes" and you should be able to e-mail them from that.
I flew the 747 200 on fs today very nice aircraft, all the 747's are there the best.
