  • just what i'm looking for!!! i'll look around for those parts.just, where?where do look for those parts?Ace hardware?

  • @JRHLoL hardware store

  • lol the commercial is funny :P

    is it 4 gaming?!

  • It's for flight simulators

  • I seem to be commenting on a lot of these, but I am so interested in building one. Where do you get your seats at?

  • We posted a couple of links to places where you can get the seat. Please go to the DIY Flight Sims website and click to the Jet Fighter or "PACS" page

  • Here are some answers that i've thought of.

    1. Many people cannot be real pilots, so the next one is to fly in video games.

    2. Fighter Planes are more responsive, and more exciting to fly, due to their intended use: war.

    3. In flight simulators, the objective is to challenge the pilot, so it's more fun to be challenged than to sit back and let the plane fly itself.

    4. Ehh, I don't think so... A lot of people just like to pick up and play.

  • buy the seat from sparco~ get a comfy bucket seat~ and the 5-point seatbelt and you are all set~ you can fix up a steering wheel and you can play driving games too~ not only for flight sims~

  • I would love to try to do a spitfire cockpit set up with remade parts in analog working rounded yoke etc instead of digtal instum, just cause everyone else has it

  • Not to mention it's really fun to crash the plane. In simulators.

  • @applesweeter

    It's all because fruit flavors are made into gum. Gum is chewable. Tobacco is chewable. Tobacco is smokable. Weed is smokable. Weed gets you high. Planes make you high (literally). Therefore, all of your questions are answered by the world's love of fruit. ;)

    Hope that helped!

  • Um I think you already gave the answer to question 2 by question 3.

  • hahaha...why the thumbs down!?

  • @GMANinGA250 u can make planes in X-plane, but most people like to fly, i do both :)

  • @applesweeter X-plane allows u to modify your planes just like what u said

  • @applesweeter i hope you are not serious, if you are, then you are boring... WHY THE HELL WOULD I LIKE TO FLY A380? try to loop, you end up dead. + all the other points.
