Introduction
We
started the process of building the next
generation Project Magenta 737NG simulator in
June 2004. Located in a "studio"
type space, the simulator is a type specific 737-700
fixed based flight training device.
Planning
began in June 2004, and since then key elements
of the simulator have been in various stages of
manufacture. We used a few specialist hardware
manufacturers to source and develop the necessary
level of fidelity required.
This
section of the website is dedicated to the
development, and the process we went through on
this particular simulator.
