Hello guys

[AeroB737Sim]

Hello friends of cockpit building,

my name is Robert and I want to introduce myself here.
I found this forum in my "favourites" toolbar, maybe I saved the link as I searched for informations around my 737 projects.

Since 2003 I am a cockpitbuilder, started with FSBUS and AGT panels to build up my own 737 cockpit. First I just wanted to create some advanced hardware for my desktop, I am flying since my 13th Birthday on Flightsimulator.

My cockpit:

But as I saw how complicate the interface systems at this time were, I decided to build a whole double seat cockpit.

I continued working and build up connections to several cockpit-building-part-sellers and start working for their projects. 2007 I started to work as a professional cockpit builder/technical engeneed of EVS-Flighttraining (www.evs-flighttraining.de) with their 737 Simulator.

Cockpit of EVS-Flighttraining:

One year after I offered my help as "self-employed" cockpit builder next to my school-education (A-level) and worked on 3 homecockpits since this time.
2008 I finished my first single-seat 737 simulator for a customer, which I build fully alone without the coordination of one of the big established part-sellers.

Single Seat Trainer:

Next to my work as cockpit builder and student I am very dedicated member of IVAO (ivao.aero), one of the big networks in online flying and a real life sport-pilot.

I am going to finish my A-level next year and want to start studying aerospace technologys at the technical university Berlin. Maybe specialisation "flight simulation".

After I finished academic studies a career as pilot with further duties (engineed, instructor, examiner) is planned.

regards,

Robert from Berlin / Germany.

Is the mip homebuild?

[hark40]

It looks like from a vendor,… otherwise I really am still more impressed

Hi,

sorry for the delay but anyhow my answer hasn't been published yet.
Which MIP do you mean? The one of my private cockpit is totally home-made. Here are some pictures:



This was one of my first MIP's I've build as 14 years aged guy. After I got some impressions also by the MIP made from a professional vendor like at the pictures you see on the initial post of this topic, my "skills" increased (I guess so ...). This is a picture of a MIP I build with 18 years for a Boeing 737 Single Seat Simulator:







With build I have to clarify that the panels and instruments are made by professional vendors, I build the rack and the glareshield (and so on) and assembled all. Unfortunately I have no milling mashine, flow jet or laser which allows me to produce panels in such a professional way as you can buy them nowadays in many shops all over the world. When I started homecockpit-building in 2003 there were only a few shops offering plexiglass panels which were engraved on the rear sides grey acrylic layer. And now we have shops which offer panels in such a excellent quality that even experts can not see the difference between original and replica... (Just the engraved S/Ns are missing).

best regards from currently sunny and warm Berlin/Germany

Robert
