    light 737

    Hi everyone,
    I'm building a very light 737 cockpit. It's only the Captain's side and it's not enclosed. It's meant for portability. Since this is not a real serious project, it's more of an 'anything goes' type of project.
    As you can see, the arrangement of everything is wildly different from the actual 737 (to accomodate the wide border of the LCD screens) so it's more of a general airliner sim.

    Of course it's no way near completed or halfway completed (that was only built in one day). I also plan to build an overhead, the pedestal and the MCP.

    Any suggestions for improvement?

    You got a good start there. There is a chance you will get bitten by the bug and expand in the future. I know it bit me hard...

    Very nice start! I started out with something very similar. A picture of it is on my sim history page.

    Looks like a good start there, the planning on the CAD looks great i'm sure that will help you massively.
    Good luck with the build, keep up updated
