Looks nice. Likely about the cost of a low end Harley.

Keep smiling

Oh, no way I could affors it, but I'd sure love to have it :)
Besides, if it costs as much as a Sporster, let's say, my wife would kill me if I bought it instead of a bike for her...

£25,000 !!!!

I think i eill just go get an instrument rating and fly the real thing for that price. I would think only those with more money than brains would buy something like that!

The Advantage to this is :

You don't have to have insurance for it

You won't have to rent / lease or buy a Hanger

You won't be buying High Priced Fuel for it

No Engine overhauls !

NOT under the Watchful eyes of the FAA

You can Fly any aircraft you want

You can Fly anywhere in the World ya want

NO FAA annuals to contend with

NO Engine Oil changes

Ya won't have to wash or wax the thing like a real aircraft

won't have to buy Tires for it

If you Crash in your Aircraft - just hit Reset button - no harm done

You'd be able to OWN any Aircraft as many as you want and never have the maintence or insurance issues to contend with.

you can Land at any Airport World Wide of your choosing anytime you want

Ya can take a Flying Vacation and won't cost ya much

you'd have acess to all kinds of food & beverages at arms length if you choose

and and and you could post Screen shots here on Simivation !!!! :D :P :o :) :shock:

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
