I have a DH Vampire cockpit which I am making into a ground attack sim loosly based on an A-10 the instrument panel contains two 17'' monitors to display flight and engine instruments.
Does anyone out there know anyone who can design these panels for me ?.
The system will run FS 2004.

This is something I'd love to do if I had the space and money, I'm have to admit I'm more than a little jealous !

If I were building such a project rather than using a panel from flight sim for you internal monitors I'd use a seperate program such as Project Magenta or FSExpand (http://www.flyware.nl) I use the flyware software myself, it's easy to set up and you can configure the panel to show whatever instruments you need, even adjusting the size/shape or colour of individual guages. It's affordable and can be run on either the FS computer or a seperate PC networked to your flightsim set up. Take a look at the demo and feel free to PM me if I can help further.

Regards,

Bruce

P.S. I take it you're using the excellent Aerosoft A10 for FS2004 ?

Bite the bullet and go for it you only live once.
Thanks for the advice is flyware user friendly my computer skills are very limited. Yes I am using Aerosoft's A-10 it is a fantastic piece of work.

Flyware is relatively simple to set up, I would suggest you take a look at the demo but you will need some patience, I'd be glad to help if I can in any way.

Where abouts are you based ?
