I Bet Your Flight Simulator Isn’t The Front End of a Real Plane

April 19, 2012 by Elizabeth DeLoria

And if it is, I bet it isn’t in your garage.

If you thought your flight simulator set up was cool because you had a pilot hat and addressed your cat as if it were a co-pilot, your world is about to turn upside down. James Price, an air traffic controller at Oakland airport, has actually taken the nose of an actual aeroplane and converted it into the ultimate flight simulator.

Not only does Price have the front end of a retired Boeing 737 as a flight sim, but he has it in his garage. Not in a backyard or in some kind of storage facility like you’d expect.

Price added the screens himself as well as updating the instruments, and it one of only a few people to have… the nose end of a Boeing 737 in his garage.
