    Talking

    Hi Nic, I was wondering what plane was worth 40mill, must be a small one as a new 737NG costs AUD$855,400,000 (from the Virgin Blue Captain who visits my sim). I can't get that much together for a while!

    737NG using Prosim737, Immersive Calibration Pro, Aerosim Solutions motorized TQ & cockpit hardware, CP Flight MCP & FDS SYS1X, SYS2X & SYS4X, FDS PRO FMCs, AFDS units & Glarewings, Matrix Orbital ELEC display, Pokeys Landing & Cruise alt display, Buttkicker Gamers, 3 x BenqMW811ST projectors with a Matrox Th2Go

    hehe - it was a 737-400, and he was probably talking US dollars

    Mycockpit.org Beacon

    I regards to the beacon. Mission essential for military aircraft as well. We used to use them on our helicopters Bell 205 (USAF HH-1H) but then modernized to strobes. They were more reliable with vibration than a rotating beacon. However you had to be very careful of the charging capacitor that fired the strobe. It really put out some kick *** current. We could see the chopper quite a lot farther out than before.

    When they were first installed of course you really had to test them out. All five choppers in the hanger at night with lights off but the strobes. Could not take that too long. Ours had 2 colors white for day and red for night. White was like looking into the sun. You could really hear the power supply charge up and fire the strobe.

    If we had a problem it was usually the power supply. Was usually a quick change so rarely did we have to change aircraft. Would have meant more work and we just couldn’t have that.
