[simpits-tech] Hello all(Intro)

Pictures!! We want pictures!! ;))

Seriously ... A WWII plane - that's cool. Mighty different from the usual
jet fighters and commercial jets. Looking forward to seeing what you've got
so far.

> Hello everyone...Just a brief into...I have been wanting to build a Me 109
simpit for about 5 years now.  A few times I wrote to you guys and recieved
alot of help.  Well, I am glad to say that I am almost done with my 109
Instrument panel and she is looking good.  I bought a great book on
Luftwaffe aircraft interiors and bought a speed guage off ebay.  Using the
book and the actual guage I was able to make an exact scale mock up on the
G-10 panel which is my favorite plane.  I can't wait to show you guys and to
hear everyones feedback, whether it's "Wow that is great!" or "what the hell
is that thing?!"  Either way, you guys, in my opinion, are the big leagues
so I hope I can make some kind of an impression.  Also, if any of you need
some photos of any Luftwaffe cockpits, or some detailed plans of ww2
fighters I have a large collection, just say the word and I will be more
than happy to send it to you.

> A while ago one of you guys sent me plans of the 109.  I do not remember
who it was but I am very thankful and owe you alot :)

> On a side note, a year ago I began construction of an apollo capsule.
Hard to make but it turned out very cool.  I was going to use it in a
classroom where I teach school at but they would not allow it being that it
was a history class.  Asked the science teacher if he wanted it but he said
no so it sat in my in laws garage where it was destroyed in the flood from
hurricane Frances :(

> Anyway, thats about it.  Can't wait to hear from you guys!
