Building a Simulator  - Creating the Illusion
Channel: Father Dane
Date: 25/12/2016

Building my flight simulator has been quite a process, but after many tries and variations, I now have a simulator to be pleased with.  It isn't perfect, but it does work and it does give me the best illusion of flight that I have been able to create thus far.  It hasn't been cheap, but as I built it up over a period of years – a bit here and a new piece there as I could afford them – it hasn't been a bank-breaker.  Of course I would like one of those really good simulators made by FSC in Italy, but until I win big on my Post Office Premium Bonds, that will have to remain a dream for the future.

In case you are contemplating constructing a simulator for yourself, I hope this video helps with the decision-making and is a good resource for you.

I am grateful to Roar Kristensen for inspiring me, https://www.youtube.com/user/roarkr51 and http://flightsim4fun.com/) and to the good people at Opencockpits (http://www.opencockpits.com/) who have been generous in providing me with an occasional discount as well as really kind with taking the time to provide me with valuable advice and support.  Thank you to you all.
