New cockpitbuilder (the cheapest and the laziest)
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to make my own 737 NG cockpit and till now I spend about 15 euros and 4 hours time.
Offcourse I allready had an VR Insight MCP Combo I (100 euros second hand) and a old Acer Laptop and last but not least a MSI GT70 OD. But I think the result up till now is pretty nice.

Ready to play and see what I can think of for the future.
