Tour of my home B-737-800 Flight Simulator Cockpit **MSFS** SimON Solutions 737

After several requests for information and tour of my 737 simulator I did this video for you all.
Disclaimer this was just a tour normal procedures were not followed. I was just showing the capabilities of the hardware for the SimOn Solutions 737 compact trainer simulator.
I will be doing live flights and some Q&A sessions later on down the road.

One of the best setups out there...what a beauty! I love the two monitor system....works for me and looks awesome...just has that special vibe to it that others don't...and just flat out feels good to look at. Good job and hope you're enjoying it.

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you I appreciate it keeping it as close as I can to real life enjoying the flights. Most of these I replicate in real life. Many more flights coming, I am hoping to start live streaming soon.

[@someasiandude8645]

This is beautiful

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you

[@GoSolarPlz]

I have triple 2k screens, a VRinsight 737 overhead, CoreFlight MCP and EFIS, Logitech radio/nav panel, bravo throttle quadrant, a buttkicker and next level racing Boeing seat, TrackIR. Next acquisition will be a Winwing FMS! Navigraph, GSX Pro, Passenger2, FS atc chatter, FSRealistic, Beyond ATC and vatsim really add the immersion to all of this! Congrats on an amazing setup Captain! Love your motorized throttles too. Just wow to your whole setup!

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you for the kinds words nice setup as well you will enjoy that FMS. I am looking forward to traffic injection for BATC.

[@Bean_3D]

Man this is awesome love the. Setup and united aswell wish I could fly one of these one day I’m stuck with the airbus throttles at the moment flying the 737 so it’s always a little weird but love the video and live to get some livestreams keep up the great content can’t wait for tug

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you I might try and live stream my flight into Reno this weekend.

[@Bean_3D]

@@cfl737sim cool does this also work for the 737 700 aswell or just the 737 800

[@cfl737sim]

@@Bean_3D The flight model in Prosim is the 800 but if they ever did a 700 or 900 it would work.

[@Bean_3D]

@@cfl737simI would but this if you ever sold it as you said just depends on money

[@hokiejoe17]

This is beautiful, i love this

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you

[@denniss.2567]

I'm also thinking of buy one of these. But I'm not sure if it is better than a VR setup ... what do you mean , had you tried both ?

[@cfl737sim]

I have not tried VR in MSFS but IMHO nothing beats the real feel and touch of the real thing. VR is very cool but in the end you are feeling and moving air. In a physical simulator you are actually moving the real thing. The touch, feel, the satisfaction of doing like we do in the real world.

[@johngrammer968]

Just wondering would the setup work with all aircraft or limited to the 737

[@cfl737sim]

It might be possible to work with other 2 engine aircraft using 3rd party software. Mine is limited to the 737 as it’s linked to prosim737

[@jorgeagraitvega1365]

How was the buying process? How long did it take to arrive? And how was it packaged? Also, with so many different options out there, what made you choose them?

[@cfl737sim]

Thank you I spent 10 months researching different companies. I spoke to several owners of SimOn Solutions equipment and in the end it was the customer service that sealed the deal for me. Two years later I still keep in contact with them they are very friendly and answered any questions I had. Below is a review I posted on Avsim of my sim. The contents came well packaged in crates and boxes. www.avsim.com/forums/topic/624230-simon-solutions-737-compact-trainer-review/?tab=comments#comment-4843981

[@jorgeagraitvega1365]

@@cfl737sim Thank you for your swift response. I’ve read your full review and update, and I’m extremely fascinated with your setup. After going through your review and doing a little bit of research, I’m ready to make a substantial purchase with them. I’ve emailed the “NORTH US PARTNER” email listed in their website. Just wondering what was the quickest way to get in contact with them?

[@cfl737sim]

@graitvega1365 email is the best you should expect a response from the US contact pretty quick. Glad the review helped it's a large expense and I think reviews and videos help folks make decisions especially when making a large purchase like this.

[@cfl737sim]

@@jorgeagraitvega1365 Jorge email is the best way. They typically respond fairly quickly.

[@fordranger4678]

Nice video,so you can't use prosim with pmdg correct?.Also where do you get your liveries at for the 737?.Thanks,Chris.

[@cfl737sim]

Correct Prosim is a stand alone program with it's own flight model. The liveries come with the FM w/ Prosim and a guy did a ton of re-paints for the 737 as well for Prosim.

[@fordranger4678]

@@cfl737sim Thanks for the info I appreciate it,a couple of questions does prosim for 737 have settings options in the FMC like PMDG?,and also are the plane sounds as good or similar in prosim as compared to PMDG?.Thanks,Chris.I'm thinking of getting the 737 Max compact trainer from Sim On Solutions when I get the money saved up.

[@cfl737sim]

@@fordranger4678 yes you have settings inside the FMC as well as a host of items in the instructor station. I setup the FMC I will import my flight from Simbrief. Activate it, import the perf data, import the capers, confirm the SID/STARS. Weights ect.. are all imported from Simbrief. I will do a quick tutorial video on how importing works in Prosim. I am on a 4 day this this week but I will work on one over the weekend.

[@fordranger4678]

@@cfl737sim Thanks for info,does the sounds from the plane sound as good as PMDG'S?.Thanks,Chris.
