Hi there,
Can any of you proffesionals help me out on a technical question?
I've started building a 767-300 simulator at home. There are two things I couldn't figure out so far.:rolleyes:
At what speed do the throttle levers move and what's the angle of the movement?
My guess it would be some 5 seconds or so for a 90° angle, but maybe one of you experts can be more specific.
Why I fly virtual airspace instead of the real thing? Well I like the freedom of the virtual airspace. I can fly wherever I want... Take off from Boeing field turn around an do a low altitude pass (gear up if I like) without getting sacked ;)
It also keeps me off the streets and gives my wife some rest so I won't drive her crazy:ugh:
Here's my website:

And one of my fellow builders and software guru's Nico Kaan that make all this possible:

:ok:
Regards,
Erwin.
PS I posted this question earlier (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=319063) on another part of the PPrune forum, but so far there was no one that answered my question.
