This homemade flight simulator of a Boeing 737 aircraft, is made completely by James Price an air traffic controller and aviation enthusiast.
Using the cockpit and nose section of a 1969 Boeing 737 aircraft, Price constructed a fully functional flight simulator in his garage.

The project took almost 10 years to complete and J. Price has programmed the software to make his flight simulator feel and react just like the real thing.
“I don’t think it will ever really be finished…I will tinker with it for years to come. There is always some new technology coming along that is too irresistible not to add to my project. … This is pretty fulfilling. I can both practice and realize my dream to fly jets. Everybody has to have their crazy hobby.”
