Title: Re: Lou - STORIES

Wow, thanks Lou for all the stories!  I love the 707 and 727 myself and went as far as building a 707 cockpit.  It was tough finding the parts, but I was able to track an old 707-323CC down and took that one (except the Webber seats of course).  I have enough parts to convert it to a 727-100 or 200 (have the glaresheilds and newer yokes for the -200).  I'm almost there in parts for the 737-200...lots of modifications for that one.  I have alot of work to do, but my buddy is almost done with his 707-331B (TWA) and I can't wait to fly it.  We're both going to use the Captain Sim 707 for the flight model.  We both had an opportunity to fly the level B 707 sim down here in Miami...and the Captain Sim felt just like it.  It was a couple years back but I think we set the EPRs to 1.8 and it rotated itself!  It was a heavy airplane, but a Cadillac and really nice airplane to fly (if the sim is anywhere like the real thing.
