Title: New member from Puyallup, WA
Post by: flyboyandre on April 08, 2013, 02:17:10 AM
Hey guys!

Keymaster told me about this forum and I went ahead and signed up after checking it out.
Based on what I've seen so far...a lot of great sharing and collaborating is taking place.
I was born and raised in northern Norway but somehow decided to move across the pond in 1997. Spent my first 3 years in Oregon before I trekked up I-5 to the beautiful Seattle area.
Cooking has been a passion of mine for a long time but smoking/grilling/barbecuing really became a passion about a year ago.
My homemade smokehouse is mostly used for fish and sausage while my faithful Traeger does the heavy lifting.

Today I finished a 13lb brisket and I'm going to make some burnt ends of the point tomorrow.

I've also attached a few pictures of my other spare time project, a full scale Boeing 737-800 simulator.
The simulator is scratch built and estimated to be a 2 year project. I'm about a year into it right now. The 220° wraparound visual system is done and some of the instrumentation is in place.
Currently building the interior sidewalls.

Glad to be a part of the forum!

Welcome from Atlanta! How do you plan on getting the real software for that 737?

The base software will be Microsoft Flight Simulator X or possibly X-Plane 10. I'm a bit on the fence but have them both.
The actual avionics will be powered by Prosim 737.
Total of 7 computers will be networked to operate the simulator.
