Upgrade

Hello flight simmers,
It has been a long time since I posted changes made to my flight simulator. But every now and then there were bits of changes I made. Finally in the summer of 2009 I had some more time to spend working on it and I decided to upgrade my single pilot simulator to double sided one. It is still not finished and I need to do a lot more. I also need to put a 19" monitor for the first officer side. I haven't also finished wiring the throttle, I am using Saitek's throttle. I plan to either make another crew sit and add padding or buy two used car sits. I incline to the later idea.
I have a flat screen monitor for the main display and a radio panel from Saitek which I still haven't installed yet.
Since I have the simulator in my basement I worry of ruining the electronic parts

Thank you very much for your comments. I hope I will finish what I started before I jump to another project on the simulator which usually happens to me.

Regards,
ermias
