My new "office"

I got tired of the temporary contraption and decided to make something else.
Treated myself to Thrustmaster MFD and a Warthog (on it's way) so i needed
something that can be mounted but still easy to dismantle, should the need arise.

Solution Akers Barnes Pit :). After a day in the workshop this is the result.
Primed with diluted tapestry glue and awaiting the first coat of primer.

Looking good. Still need to install the mini fridge, microwave, and keg-er-ator, don't forget!

Agreed! You'll absolutely need all these gadgets for those extra long flights. And don't forget to mount the urination tube as well while you're at it! :icon_cheesygrin:

How can you get the true feeling of long range endurance military flights without your trusty catheter?!

Yea, something every man must experience at least once........ Glad I was asleep when they put it in, coming out wasn't much fun.

I didn't get such luxury! I got a squirt of morphine down the chappy to get it in and then to get it out was a twist and a tug. Felt like I was pissing lava for the next few days.

Anyway... lovely cockpit!

I'll do it the way we did when "ultra silent" on the subs were ordered, shit and piss in a bucket :D

Anyway, equipment has arrived :icon_cool:

Some work later.
Very comfy I must say :) Going back to desktop flight after this will be impossible.
Now I'll rearrange the room so I can switch between the desk and the pit from the same
computer.

Looking good. I think you should add wings and paint it like the Red Barron, just like in Snoopy. :icon_cool:

Oh and screw the desk, just us that as you whole PC experience. :dance2:

I like how your chair has more paint then your walls, at least you have your priorities right :D

HeHe, the basement are "a work in progress" that we haven't got around to yet.

In the weeks to follow I will begin with this room and start by floating the floor level :)

So after buying a small DB9 adapter the G940 pedals are wired to a control card and thus I have pedals again :)

Happy camper!
