    I purchased an overhead start panel with the ejector switches (for turbojet sound surpression), I never thought I would be able to find one of those.

    Ive flown a level D DC-8-70 series sim and was amazed at how hard the DC-8 is to fly! Its the only airliner sim I couldnt land. Im sure a DC-9-31 is much more sporty to fly. Im glad to see youre going with a classic DC-9.
    If you have any questions about escorts, drop me a line - I used to run an oversized load escort service here in Utah.

    @Flyinghigh: Nice pic, looks like you have your work cut out for you!

    Hej Perry

    Remember that the panels shall have max 5 volt to light.
    Panels are electrical connected through snap fastener-like plugs in the alu front.
    On the back of the alu front, you have ground connections that should not be used, and then you have the connectors with 2 connections to the backlight.

    You can find many useful information on our website: http://www.md80project.dk
    If you ask the admistrator you can definitely get your own section where you can write about your project.
    Back first in 2009 it was practically impossible to find any information about DC 9 simpits online. We have fortunately gathered almost all projects on the home page and more DC9/MD sim builders welcome.

    I build the MD-80 version.

    Sincerely,

    Re: DC-9 cockpit

    Thank you i might just do that. I would love to see the panels light up to make it more realistic.
