Hi all,

I just found this forum online and it is exactly what I was looking for. I have been playing MS FS for probably 20 years now. A couple of years ago I bought the Saitek yoke, I thought that was cool so I bought the throttle, loved that so then bought all the other controls. I realized that I needed something closer to the 737 so I bought the Goflight MCP and 737 replica throttles (last Summer). I decided ok, lets go for it all so bought the OpenCockpits overhead which I have racked in my walk in closet an then last month bought Open Cockpit's single seat MIP. It has taken me over a month now to get all the wiring done and I still have a lot more work to do. People ask me "why don't you get your pilot's license"? I always need to explain that its the building, and programming of the devices that is the most fun. Not necessarily the flying.
Anyways nice to meet you all. I will be asking a lot of Opencockpits questions!
