Hi coffeeguy, glad you enjoyed the view. I've been in a few multi-million dollar sims and the visuals are no where near as good as MS2020/2024. With that said, in a full flight deck really gives a nice peripheral view of the entire area. Love every minute I get to spend in the deck.
Yoo this is insane, i looked at the thumbnail and thought it was a pilot in a real cockpit giving his experience and thoughts on the game LOL. Good work with this!
Cool channel... I worked at a flight simulation company many years ago in Tampa. (2) F18 cockpit, dome simulator with 360 view. Amazing how realistic... Just about fell off the platform, good thing some railing was nearby. 🤔
That's, Same thing happened to my wife when pushback started when I first had the deck installed, she grabbed onto the trainer to keep from falling over.
Microsoft should be watching your videos in order to find bugs and fixes. Pretty amazing set up. I imagine if it wasn’t so intricate and people had to learn what everything does, you could probably charge people $20 or more in order to fly a session in that simulator. I think people would pay simply to sit in the second pilot seat and watch you perform these tasks. That is amazing and I would love to do something like this with a fighter jet for flight combat games.
LOL, SwannSim is not an idiot. Microsoft makes tens of millions of profits from this simulator software and contracts and extends just over $284,000 per year to make improvements so obviously there is at least $100K per year going to the channel.
there are several such simulators in Europe, and they do charge for using it, some have made it a real business, even centers with more than one sim. What most do lack is the motion simulation. A Swiss firm produces even this gadget, but it's not cheap. It's not like the big Level-D sims that airlines use, those are two stories high.

I have a sim racing set up myself, so I understand a tiny bit of what you've gone through here, but man, this really is some next level stuff. Most people are simply impressed with the pure spectacle of your rig, and the skill to fly it, but they do not know the work it takes just maintaining it. One thing I notice with mine is that if I dont use it for a few weeks, or God forbid, months, then I have to relearn how to use the dang thing again. Setting it back up again when I moved into my new place was like learning an ancient language lol. I really hope they get 2024 in a really good place so you can get some serious enjoyment out of it. I think the fire and rescue stuff will be sweet in your rig. You're right also, without photogrammetry, it really saps the experience. My internet sucks in my new place, and the visuals are a real bummer for me with the stock stuff.
Wow, this is insane! 😮 I had no idea how elaborate flight simulators actually were for real life training purposes could be! At first I thought this was real!

Thanks, you have a good eye for detail. The same company (Flightdeck Solutions) that made my simulator has done work for Southwest, Alaska, NASA, BAE, Honeywell and GE.
If you can stomach the motion movements then the VR headset is the way to go, its absolutely incredible, the immersion you get could only be bettered if you had a moving rig. This setup is amazing but dont want to think how much it cost, probably well out of most peoples budget. There is also the benefit of not needing the space to build this, i wish i could have one but the VR will do just fine.
Hi... well your setup is amazing👏 absolutely love it...i on the other hand have an xbox and a comfortable couch with a nice 55inch 4k tv...😂😂 and thats my cockpit in a nutshell, but i love flight sim, only started last year, and looking forward to the next endorsement in November, thanks for showing your fantastic hobbie, i appreciate your content 👍

It is so cool to see how other human beings use their free time and what their hobbies and interests are. Truly captivating. I do have a question though, could you share with us approximately how much a set up like this costs? Thanks!
It depends on ones skills, if you're good with cutting, drilling, wiring, soldering and what not it will be much cheaper. But if you want something that is basically plug and play, you're looking at about $100K.
@@swannsim Is there a way to make the simulator where you feel movement and if so is yours like that? Also if you had to fly the real deal are you confident you could not issue?
plot twist: this is a real plane he just says its a sim so Southwest doesnt catch on that hes going for joy rides after hours.
😁 Believe it or not, Southwest Airlines purchased equipment from flightdeck Solutions just as I have. This is their website: flightdecksolutions.com/

The external noise is from the aircraft environment, wind, avionics, radios, cabin sounds and so on.
This is, I don't have words to describe the excellence, I'm serious, I want to solute you sir 4 the absolute astonishing work.
Thanks LoudPipesSavesLives, Glad you enjoyed the ride!
@swannsim I'm on your 2nd vid as I type 😆 🤣
Now this is dedication to sim gaming! Pretty much on the same level as the official simulators major airlines use for their training.
Thanks, you have a good eye for detail. The same company (Flightdeck Solutions) that made my simulator has done work for Southwest, Alaska, NASA, BAE, Honeywell and GE.
That cockpit might just be one of the most beautiful creations I’ve ever seen!
Thanks tom, glad you enjoyed the view.
If you can stomach the motion movements then the VR headset is the way to go, its absolutely incredible, the immersion you get could only be bettered if you had a moving rig. This setup is amazing but dont want to think how much it cost, probably well out of most peoples budget. There is also the benefit of not needing the space to build this, i wish i could have one but the VR will do just fine.
Yeah, this setup cost is around $100 grand. I am planning on setting up a heli sim with VR in the future.
Who's talking from the air tower?
There are two programs running for ATC. Sau Intentions AI and FS-ATC Chatter.
@@swannsim Sorry, I don't know what that means. You said its a program running, but you're talking back with the air tower?
Hi... well your setup is amazing👏 absolutely love it...i on the other hand have an xbox and a comfortable couch with a nice 55inch 4k tv...😂😂 and thats my cockpit in a nutshell, but i love flight sim, only started last year, and looking forward to the next endorsement in November, thanks for showing your fantastic hobbie, i appreciate your content 👍
Hi,
Yep, I'm waiting for 2024 myself. Can only imagine what's in store going forward.
@@swannsim exactly my friend 👍
I did all the one line power for United’s flight training center in Denver. we would work overnight and the facility maintenance guys would fly us around the world. It was so cool
Nice!
Wow. Just wow. Amazing setup! God bless you.
Thanks SOTMH, glad you enjoyed the view.
This is absolutely positively stunning and awesome! I’ve never seen anything like this in my entire life. It is so cool to see how other human beings use their free time and what their hobbies and interests are. Truly captivating. I do have a question though, could you share with us approximately how much a set up like this costs? Thanks!
It depends on ones skills, if you're good with cutting, drilling, wiring, soldering and what not it will be much cheaper. But if you want something that is basically plug and play, you're looking at about $100K.
Well done, I’m hooked aka subscribed
Thanks Snowman, glad you enjoyed the ride.
Wow brother...just wow. Glad I stumbled across this video. Well done.
Thanks for stopping by, glad you enjoyed the view.
@@swannsim Is there a way to make the simulator where you feel movement and if so is yours like that? Also if you had to fly the real deal are you confident you could not issue?
holy moly, this guy knows about immersion lol
Thanks Iceman, glad you like the setup.
You are the final BOSS in MFS. Amazing and i wish you the best moments with your sim!
Thanks Shockdog, I love every minute I get to spend in here.
at first i thought it was real. then i looked out his outfit hahah. man u have the best setup boss. all i use is controller lol
Thanks mxrkone, glad you like the ride.
I'm run and taxi on 747s and a lot of this resonates with me. Very accurate and obviously some of this exceeds me. Very impressive.
Thanks appv, glad you enjoyed the ride!
Excellent fight captain smoothest ride I've ever had!
Thanks Andrew, glad you enjoyed the ride.
T-Shirt shoulders with 4 Giant Magic Marker Stripes. Captain oh Captain
I have the shirt, but it's uncomfortable to wear. 8-)
let me know when you start renting out the other seat! Looks amazing brother!
I'd like to but the wife will have none of that. 🤣
the spirit airlines pilot uniform really helped set the scene.
What is the price tag on a sim like thay?
You're looking at about $100K.
What a set up, I’m in awe.
Thanks John.
THIS guy is the Conan of Hardcore Gaming. Not jealous, just really impressed! o7
Thanks IndustrialFaith!
Fellas...if you stay single, you too can have something like that. The Man Cave for aviators.
My wife wouldn't like to hear that. 😄
Absolutely stunning.
May I ask does MSFS have everything built into it to allow all of the hardware integration. Or do you need extra software.
I use PMDG's 737-800 and Device Interface Manager (freeware) for the hardware/software interface.
