[simpits-tech] Interesting new product from Saitek...

[Rick Davis]

Hey Phil!

It's all together and works great aside from the Garmin (which is project for someone else.) The Yoke is installed and it's NICE. 

I have been so busy with the Video thing I doubt I'll have time to do much flying for a long time. It's been sitting in the basement with a plastic sheet over it for three months or more, so I think it's probably a unit better in someone's basement that can get some enjoyment and use out of it. Of course I'd like to just keep it there under a plastic sheet in case I ever get the itch again, but wedding vows and all that you know.

My sanity has been questioned more than once around here! ha ha

Rick

          What did buddy on there say he was? A senior product developer? Didn't look 
          to me like he even know what he was talking about. Says they made it so you 
          can snap three of them together .... hmmmm.... let's see, I wonder which 
          three? Something has got to go it seems.

          Before any of you cats go out there and buy any of that, I will most likely 
          be selling my 172 panel c/w 18 working Simkits gauges and the Simkits CCU1 
          before the summer is out.

          If you'd like more info contact me off list. I can send along some eye 
          candy.
