Summer months coming to a close

We have been spending a lot of time up at our cabin in Cascade, so I haven't had any time to really do any development work on the hardware side of the cockpit. For now, I've just been flying as many different missions and planes as I can on my current mock setup to make sure it has everything I want to have addressed. I really need to install Descent 3 again and just try it out on the wide display too. Maybe even Mech Warrior II. But mostly, I'm just getting use to all the settings, getting familar with all the different GPS knobs and the amazing depth that the G1000 has (including runway approach information, elevation and everything info on almost every airport you can think of). I'm also trying to find optimal configurations for all the different planes and stuff to make sure that my current stack of monitors is going to be the best support. I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to get a lighted keyboard to mount up in the top front of the cockpit to just provide some sort of access, and I will probably have to have a wireless mouse somewhere. Beyond that, I have to figure out position and overall layout for all 6 of the monitors, the flight yoke, rudder pedals, 6 quad throttle stack, fighter flight stick and fighter throttle stick. It is all going to have to probably start with the chair and for that, I need to get some time to go to a junk yard and get a nice cloth seat...
