Absolutely sweet setup mate. Would love to build a home simulator for Flight Sim but haven't the cash nor the room.

The Yoke is made by Saitek and is part of their Pro Flight range, it comes with a throttle quadrant, and Saitek also make some really good rudder pedals.
The screens to the right are running FS Commander, which is a great program for flight planning and also gives you s moving map image of where you are, where other planes are, airport and ILS/ATC info, and also live vatsim info if you are on that. The other monitor has Simplates airport charts which are great for flying real world procedures. Also use it to display things like ASX real weather at times as well though.
Certainly is. I really like the big jets, and have found this to be the best plane add-on. Very well modelled and frame rate friendly.
It is nice except I haven't a clue how to fly it! The overhead systems are the ones I cant get sorted.
I tend to stick to the PMDG 737.
If you want to learn it then some great step by step guides have been written and are downloadable from

You will need to have/create an account on the forum though.

Got my new Dell 2209WA its awesome!
No! stay in more! you have a plane set up in your house. AWESOME!
How easy are these flight sims to just pick up and play? Will i need to spend weeks just learning how to get the plane off the ground?
I remember playing some Microsoft Flight Sim YEARS ago, i just kept crashing the plane
It depends how much you want to get out of it really. if you want to just muck around in a cessna then fair enough but with the bigger jets there can be quite a learning curve. You can start at the end of the runway and just take off but for more realism you can start on the stand, use proper flightplans, program flight management computers and run through checklists all before you even start up! The detail on some of the recent addons is unreal and getting to grips with some of these jets is hard work but well worth the effort.
