Hello All

In my intro yesterday, I mentioned I'd post some shots of my older F4U Corsair Mockpit currrently in use as my pc work station gaming machine. I also mentioned my latest project which is based on another popular WWII 'Warbird', the Focke Wulf model FW 190 A variant.

The old corsair was fun to create use but like all things we make into long term pastimes, we long to improve on our earlier ventures.

I've chosen the FW 190 as it has always held a special spot in my deep interests of WWII Warbirds. Adding to that is that many see the FW series as having one of the more ergonomic appealing cockpit layouts.

Anyway, on with the show...

Cheers n Beers
