Just a little addition to the pit, F/O CDU.
You can also spot the terrainradar and VSD on the displays, but plane is situated on RW.

It's been a year almost since my sim was placed in the warehouse in wait for the new house.
I have collected and buing stuff the whole time, so I'm VERY eager to get V3.0 rolling.
In good old fashion I have to make some changes to the floor plan to get the right amount of space for the sim and the workshop in the cabin department (new addition), and this time I have enough space for it all. Got pretty crowded in my last room :D
(De)Construction will start October 15th.
For new viewers I'm sorry for all the pictures gone missing. This was due to some mixup in my google account and a lot of pics got deleted when trying to merge accounts. Yepp, I messed it up big time.
Many pics to come the next year from now I hope.
How the time flies... my sim is not, but soon again, it will be brought to life.
Here is a little update stitched togeter from other forums.
