Re: A Boeing 737NG cockpit build
Hey guys.. It's about time I updated this thread. I keep posting YouTube vids, but neglect to update here..
Okay.. So let's start with where I left off in my previous post.
The aft overhead have been assembled 90%. Atleast good enough to start soldering and interfacing against my IO card. Do you guys think it's a good idea to interface the aft overhead on the same interface card as the forward overhead? Is it doable? It's a SYS1 card.
The overhead still needs some finishing up.. I also need to paint the switches for the IRS.

Here's a snap-shot of the newly received MIP from SimWorld. I like the overall quality and looks of it.

And here's how she looks after todays work. Hopefully I'll get some more time to build tomorrow. Maybe I can have the first wall finished by tomorrow night then. It' would be really nice.

Re: A Boeing 737NG cockpit build
Still working on the sidewalls.. I haven't been too eager to head over to the garage lately. Just had me a week off from sim-building..
Here's how the sidewalls look as of today. Still have some rounding of edges and other angles to finish before I start the window linings..
