Rob,
 I cant believe I never heard of them before. I must be slacking. Their prices look great too!
 
 
It looks like I might end up like you with a real flight deck AND a real sim. I'm looking at an old C-141 sim that was retired a couple of years ago. As far as I know it is the only privately owned C-141 sim around.  With the metal base that it sits on it weighs 11,000 pounds. I'm hopeing most of the weight is in the base. If I cant get the weight down that is going to be a real pain in the rear. 
 
Is your L-1011 sim functional? I have puuled some parts out of the real thing, I think L1011 were designed to make it hard. For the most part they don't use normal Zeus(SP?) rails. Oops, i just realized you sold the sim. I guess only so many pit can be put in the garage ;-)
 
I have a really nice L-1011 passenger seat in my DC-8 too. 
 
I have one last question, Why is your site not part of the Simpits webring???

I'm using 2 of the keyboard interfaces and 1 plasma and they all work FLAWLESSLY!   I don't have time to program either so these are viable alternatives. Can't wait till he gets the I/O board done.
Thanks,
Rob Archer
