Where are the how to articles. I am looking forward to the convention on the gold coast. I have purchased hydraulics and intent to built a pretty good motion platform towards the end of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Blackburn Posted October 22, 2007 at 03:55 AM Posted October 22, 2007 at 03:55 AM Mike, Welcome to VATSIM. www.vatsim.net/prc is a great starting point. In addition you might want to join the local Australian forum at www.vatpac.org where you will find like minded folks - one of whom already has a full sized 747 on a motion platform.

Ross Carlson Posted October 22, 2007 at 07:33 PM Posted October 22, 2007 at 07:33 PM I'd hate to see the price tag on a motion platform that could support a full-sized 747. I'd have to justify the cost by converting the p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]enger cabin into my house.

Terrence Scanlan Posted October 25, 2007 at 10:14 PM Posted October 25, 2007 at 10:14 PM HI Mike, The B747 sim referred to above is a 1:1 scale cockpit mounted on a motion platform. http://www.hyway.com.au/747/ for more detail and also http://www.worldflight.com.au to see how this cockpit is used to raise money for a worthy cause.
