Cessna 172 Flight Simulator
This site shows the progress I make in building my own Flight Simulator. The simulator should eventualy simulate flying a Cessna 172 as real as possible. Meanwhile I use the simulator as a flight training device to train for my private pilot license course.

A (not fully) functional setup
The Simkits yoke has been assembled and connected and works perfectly well. Much much better than the CH yoke (at a price ofcourse...). The mechanism is real good and it handles and centers great. I have also started building everything into a sort of movable section. This so I can easily move it aside to be able to work on it from all sides. Next thing to do is to get the throttle build in somehow. I also still have a heading indicator which needs to be assembled. All the remaining gauges have been replaced with pictures for the moment.
