COCKPIT: RACEGUY (FA40, USA)

(Updates added at End of Post – Aug-11, 2017)
Received a post comment from Ed Gilbert (aka Raceguy) about his P-51D cockpit that he has been working on for the last two years.   He said that the project is about to complete sometime this week.   I can’t help to say “wow!”

The photos are originally posted on the A2A Forum.  I have sought his permission to re-post the photos here.

Frankly, whenever I look at the cockpit pictures from FSX Times friends who shared with us here, I always feel the excitement and am deeply touched by the time, the effort, and the sweat (probably blood as well) they put onto our common passions in flight simulation.   Thank you Raceguy.   Thank you all.
