The story about the Norwegian 737 Project. A documentary about why we build flight simulators

I was contacted by a nice guy called Danny Neubecker who loves making videos and music. He asked if he could come visit with his friends to make a kind of documentary about the simulator.
Here is the result

[@pedrojulio5889]

My heart is beating and a little light heading experiencing that last landing. WOW! JUST WATCHING the video. Good job and thanks for sharing so much.

[@Class1aNScaleModelRailroading]

Well done! Been following Norwegian 737 project from day one and one cool way to see the final results of the sim via documentary! Excellent video! 5 out of 5!

[@joaomanuelfabiaodasilva6854]

[@kuyabillromjue6892]

It has been Great watching this evolve over the years and I am Amazed at how awesome your Sim turned out. Just Awesome ! Thank You for sharing this awesome project it really has been fun watching these.

[@marvinbrooks2601]

[@larryluffel777]

What a really nice documentary, very professional and a joy to watch! Been waiting a long time to see the 'behind the scenes' look at this amazing simulator. My hats off to you and Danny. Nice job...

[@steampog]

This is truly my favorite video. If I'm ever in Norway, I'd love to check it out! Much respect to you for your craftsmanship, sir.

[@StevenKiberton]

Keep up the amazing work.. Sim is looking beautiful as always

[@FVAS2007]

From one trucker to another...this is awesome my friend. Absolutely awesome!

[@1506jet]

incredible. I think this video best describes the home built cockpit experience, even though the cameras cannot capture the way it's supposed to look. the fact that the people react with fear and higher heart rate with such simulator shows how immersive it is!! thanks for bringing this documentary to us

[@mowburnt]

Great documentary. And as someone who loves the ngx but doesn't have much learning time I learnt something very useful....the function of the flight director and therefore how to hand fly departures and approaches. Has made my flying a million percent more rewarding. Thank you so much both of you :-)

[@pedrorego940]

Amazing justice done to this project with this doc. All the best for you guys! Happy landings!

[@stretchedits]

What a lovely video, these guys did a wonderful job of putting together a first class video of a great simulator. You must be very pleased with the result. One of the most interesting video's I have seen in a long while. Keep up the great work, and hope to see more sometime soon. Thank you for sharing with us all.

I have been watching your videos since years ago. Inspiring work indeed.

[@teichertmike9049]

Hervorragende Arbeit. Vielen Dank für diese Doku.

[@robertjones3613]

A thoroughly enjoyable, professional documentary which will no doubt inspire others to pursue their own flight sim dreams. The Norwegian 737 project progress is one I always enjoy. Awesome to say the least. Well done all those involved in the making of this informative and fun video.

[@dannyneubecker2247]

Thank you! :)

[@samllorca]

Great video! I also have a 737-800 built back on 2012, I started building and flying simulators back in 2001, my inspiration was the grandfathers of flight simulation Matt Ford and James Prices, first two persons to ever build a full 737 with real airplane parts, and is true the simulation software and even integrated hardware has come a long way since we started building back in the day, congratulations!

[@philchimbolo]

Terrific documentary Danny! Kjetil, a pleasure -- as always -- to see you enjoy our mutual hobby flying your dream machine. Thanks for sharing!

[@adriankoola]

What a fantastic documentary and well done on you dedication to the sim! It's paid off mate,, Greetings from down under :)

[@leseditionspiamo]

great dream achieved !! Thx .... If I ever come to Norway I'd love to visit and try a ride. Please keep filming and posting, very inspiring for us all who couldn't be commercial pilots but dreaming of it. As long as I can remember I always wanted to be a pilot. I flew averything that flies from paragliders to twins but carreer never was possible. Your achievement is a model. Thank you indeed for sharing this adventure, your dreams, your flights with such nice empathy and smiles. Greetings from France

[@AlphaKilo]

This one is so inspirational. Thank you sir

[@jamiebuchanan3653]

Anders / Danny - I've followed the 737 project for many years now and you guys did a great job with this video, well done! It was really interesting to see the simulator in a different light. Kjetil - You are clearly very passionate about what you do and you deserve to be proud of the end result. You are a true inspiration! Love from Manchester, England

[@dannyneubecker2247]

Thank you so much! Makes me happy that you like it!

[@anderskvarnefalkforslund4355]

Thank You very much!

[@OXYOXYOXY444]

ive been there from the start following all the way . good to see your doing well . until then keep on simming

[@96rc90]

I have followed this project from day one and it is a massive motivation for myself I really want to make one in the future but hopefully for a A320. Good work man

[@snkuntjoro]

If ever I consider visiting Norway, your place is top of my list to visit for sure.

[@clipsstubeyt8693]

S.N. Kuntjoro i’m going There tomorrow

[@yeastydynasty]

This is an amazing video. Thank you guys for making this video. I show people this who just don't understand why I flight sim. People say that instead of spending the money to build a flight sim in your home, go out and get a pilots license and I tell those people, 1) I don't have the aptitude to be a pilot and 2) its a hobby. Thank you guys again for making this video.

[@MrTact1]

Thanks for this very nice documentary. Good job!

[@landi191919]

Well done, Sir! Great achievement!

[@adelaideboeing737project4]

Absolutely Awesome documentary!! I loved it. Was great to see the sim in action. Love your 240deg screen. I only have 1 projector for the outside view.....but will one day get a 3 projector screen. Been following your build from the begining. Once again great documentary and simulator.

[@dannynievesgerena578]

Hello from Hot and Sunny Puerto Rico! This is very impressive, I congratulate you! Amazing stuff!

[@Seifer465]

Just unbelievable! My mind is blown.

[@IamSpartacus1984]

Great Vid guys. I`ve followed your 737 project almost from the start. For me the 737 is the greatest aircraft ever made. It has a special place in my heart. When i was 7 years old my parents took me on holiday to Spain ( i live in the UK ) It was on a Boeing 737. Brittania airways. I would imagine it would have been a 737-200. I`ve flown the 737-800 a lot now on my pc ( PMDG) but would love a sim like yours. Awesome job. Respect from the UK.

[@marybejar1381]

[@ChristophGAP]

Amazing documentary about your great sim project. I live not far from Innsbruck and love that part of the video, and I bet you will add the upcoming new Innsbruck scenery of ORBX to your simulator... I would like to see an approach in your sim to that new LOWI soon :)

[@B737realpilot]

Hey we have a lot in common, I flew the 737 in Europe and was retrenched and never went back. Since started to build my own single seat 737 sim. Good motivational tool brother

[@donalbercs3996]

Hi my name is Don, I am totally encourage with your videos, from the start until the end of your 737 project and I shared the same background with Danny except the videos and music making. I have gotten a lot of inputs in everything you have said in this particular video itself. My wife has the same mindset with your wife, who encourages me to actually go and realize my dream. I hope this message will reach you because a certainly needs a whole lot of answers for my questions, to guide me to achieve the same. May you and your family be blessed with good health and lots of enjoyments in all things you do.

[@virus7379]

Great simulator. Watched all your videos. Nice documentary.

[@ricolcc13579]

[@michaelmorgan6796]

Great documentary. I have been building an F/A 18 cockpit but would love to build a 737. Could you do a video behind the scenes of your computers?

[@tomasolivieri1615]

Really nice video..! I really enjoyed..! I encourage you make your own flight simulator project.... Greeting from Venezuela..!

[@MrDartRevan1]

[@dannyk5084]

Beautiful project! Are you using FSX with Active sky?

[@VHTim]

Well done!

[@fire_gamer123angulo2]

I am only a kid my dad and I are working on it just the wood is a lot of money I always wanted to be a pilot. This is a project. Every night I think all the stuff is in. He is right you need a lot of dedication to do this.

[@FSSRKeyno]

what a great video, thanks for sharing. It was my dream too, but times have changed. Economics :-(

[@flightsimxrs]

Nice to know your background I never thought you are a real pilot

[@vittoriogangemi9818]

fantastic congratulation ....how much spent for the cockpit ?

[@DEK33019]

Nice work!

[@marybejar1381]

(This is my moms old acount) I'm only 9 but I built one out of cardboard. #moving controls!!!!!! You are an awesome motivation!

[@ryanbaircraftmechanicandsm7524]

Great video. Ho much did it cost to build it?

[@PissedOffBanker]

Awesome!

[@ricolcc13579]

I am looking for your next flight! Please upload it!!

[@Nunocaioba]

Hello, nice documentary, my sugestion to a awesome flight: make a flight between the Santos Dumont Airport "SDU" in Rio de Janeiro and Congonhas Airport "CGH" in São Paulo, the two most short runways in Brazil, like an a aircraft carrier...

[@alexormulea]

All I can say is WOW!!!

[@aleksandarkosanovic3017]

Good job !

[@ProNerdChannel]

Amazing.

[@findlayoconnor3888]

Brilliant :)

[@steampog]

If you integrated a hudraulic system for tilt/pitch/yaw/roll, you could make a ton of money by marketing this to flight academies in your country. I'm sure trainees would appreciate the opportunity to get real-world experience.

[@PiezPiedPy]

Brilliant ;)

[@ovnilab]

AWESOME! How much did it end up costing?!

[@joesaint82]

I would use it to reenact the scene from "Airplaine" "what's you're vector Victor..."

[@KorpiHaro]

Btw are you anyday going to call him visit you again? This was so amazing and fun to watch when you flied with him.

[@kiksterman]

What software do you use to get this view in p3d? Opus fsi over network? how much computers do you use for the view? how many degrees do you have? (not the screen but the real degrees you see? it looks like more tha 180 Thanks

[@ProTuner06]

That's it. I have to build one now.

[@coriemi62]

Nice video

[@peterfinkill8098]

Hi. Great video. I am currently building a 737 cockpit. What do you use to produce the pilot to 'passenger' effect. Using the hand held microphone at the start of this video? What is that connected to to produce the sound?

[@dannyneubecker2247]

This is just the sound from the headset

[@kennypascaud]

I love it

[@dsandesh]

salute.......wow

[@frabruardo7452]

[@dkz1302]

Nice video, since youre scandinavian as i am, i want to request if you could fly from Oslo to Malmö? It would be awesome O_o

[@xsychic]
