Favorite Cockpits?

Postby wolfipilot » Mon Aug 06, 2007 2:57 pm

... hello!

I just wonder what Cockpits do you all use, resp. what your favorite cockpits are? For me, I mostly fly the AirBerlin B737-700, and as for the cockpit: the UltimateBoeing737 is - especially since it is free to download - my first choice.

Actually I am in search of an Airbus cockpit - any suggestions?

Tu-154 Cockpit from Project Tupolev!

Now that takes some reading to use!

If I ever fly something without a VC my first instinct is to look for a Ken Mitchell panel.  ALL his panels are incredible ;)

However, when I am flying not using my simpit (rare these days), for the BAe 146-200 the Version 3.0 BAe Panel Project panel by Matthias Liebrecht.  It is literally payware quality..... rivals PMDG 's systems accuracy.  And the new 4.0 version of his is coming out very soon...that looks to brings the panels/systems emulation right up close to a virtual "type rating simulator".

This panel coupled with Jon Murchison's 146-200 is a KILLER combination.

best,

I like both the iFly 747 and the POSky Boeings.  But, my favorite is just the standard old 737 cockpit that came with FS2004.  I know it is nowhere near graphically as accurate or flashy as any of the add-ons, but because it is what I started using to learn to fly on the big planes it is familiar and comfortable to me.

... great to see your answers. Btw: the 737-Panel came together with the AirScheffel B737-800 was quite nice to me as well since it contains the checklists automatically done by the 1st Officer. If I would be a bit more experienced in doing panles myself I'd try to implement somewhere else.
