Slightly loaded question but...

Hi Guys,
What should I get next...

2 of Joe's/Dodianos yokes or a gear lever?

I have the main hardware (MIP/MCP/OH/Ped) but don't have a gear lever and have a CH yoke but last weekend had the great opportunity to visit Ian Sissons simpit and was totally impressed by the yoke and column he built (as well as the rest of his sim). 1/2 of me says get the gear lever as that will complete the MIP but then again you only touch it twice - once up, once down but the yokes are always used.... Feel slightly left out not having the lever but they are nice yokes (very impressed)........

Cheers
Mike

You're right... go the yokes! I reckon these are the most important item to get right, but are often neglected for the sake of what looks good.

I second that, go for the yokes!!! They are the door knobs to your house, it's the first things that someone will see and touch before they enter your home. It's also true with the sim !!!!!I love mine

Ok convinced - credit card at the ready and drain pipe to be purchased

Get the 3", it's closest to the Boeing yoke column diameter. It's nearly spot on.
