747-400 Simulator

[hyway]

Hi Guys,
I have been building a 747-400 full scale simulator in Sydney, 3 years in to a 10 year project.
I am looking for a 747-400 rated pilot to test the control pressures for me.
I have had about 25hrs in the real sims and I am happy with the feel now, but would like a professional opinion!
The sim web site can be found at http://www.hyway.com.au/747/747.html
or email me at

Cheers,
Matt

Cant help with the feel but an awesome project nonetheless.

Perhaps you should look at a Sonic Cruiser - it may still be a current type by the time you complete it.

Just kiddin - As said - Excellent Project & good luck.

G'day Tutu,
I hear what you are saying, But!
Most of the enjoyment comes from building it and getting all the computers to interface with the hardware.
The way Boeing has changed cockpits over the last 15 years, you won't see much difference in the Sonic Cruiser cockpit to the 747-400 anyway <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
Most likely look like a 737-800 or 777
That's if they build it now!
Cheers,
Matt

C'mon guys there must be a B744 driver out there who hasn't lost the old fascination and excitement with anything aviation who can help out a fellow enthusiast.
I would be surprised and disappointed if there were thought to be any security risks in the project?
