Today I had a visit from Paul Of Gertruyden. Paul is also a member of the Flight Simulator Club ’27th Squadron’ and he is mainly involved in VFR flying.

In the near future Paul a generic desktop cockpit (Cessna) build with the basic of Flight Illusion and panels from GoFlight. This desktop model will primarily be the ‘basic’ without too many bells and whistles.

He came to have a look with what materials I have worked in the construction of the cockpit (and also of course to my cockpit open to the public). The start of the project is scheduled for early 2013.

Good luck Paul.

The 737-yoke from PFC does not have decals (stickers). I thought they at Revolution Simproducts to be found but which have no yoke decals. After some searching between the different cockpitbouwers I have these decals found in Fabio Ippoliti (Rome) and Rudy Danese (BE).

In addition to the previous chapters relates to the ‘Flight Deck Sound System", I wondered how much the ‘SPL’ (Sound Pressure Level) is in a B737-800 Cockpit.

Some allied B737-800 pilots at Ryanair have a while ago for me the test on the sum taken by a measurement to do on cruisehoogte (FL370).

This measurement is done via an App on their IPhone and not using a calibrated meter vibration. So the result is not 100% correct but it gives us an idea.

Further info regarding this test is found on page http://www.flightdeck737.be/pc/sounds/flight-deck-sound-system/

Have tacticle Sound or ‘tangible sound’ is an interesting addition to the homecockpit.

By vibrations of the different mechanical parts or situations, this gives again an additional ‘real flight’ feeling in the cockpit.

Sounds impressive ‘Flight Deck Audio System. It is better than cockpitgeluiden’.

The humming noises that can be heard from the pc speaker when the first versions of MSFS is already long past time. The current hard - and software are currently offering a lot of possibilities and perspectives to which a realistic audio-setup in a cockpit verwezelijkt can be.

The setup of a Flight Deck Audio System is also a very important factor to a ‘real’ feeling to have in a cockpit.
