Q: Sim Avionics or Project Magenta?
A: I own both. I like both and I appreciate the developers who loved this hobby so much that they devoted their lives to aircraft logic :) I currently am using Sim Avionics but I recommend you try the Demo for both PM and SimA to decide what works best for you.

Q: How much does it cost?
A: Sorry, I didn’t keep my receipts. :) If you are asking this question, then you in “research” mode. This is where you go to every site on the internet, read posts, watch videos, and start to plan what it is you want to build. Grab a piece of paper, follow the links many of us have on our sites, and start to add the costs of all the various parts. At that point, you will be in “crossroads” mode. This is where you go “Holy…!!!!” and then start to ask yourself “How much of this can I make my own?” :)

Q: Why do you run this website?
A: When I started on the 737 I started My737Sim.com and I created for two reasons. One, to be able to showcase the simulator I was building. And two, to have a place to for all of you to come and read about all my sim building experiences, sites I found, links to software I use and so forth. There are a lot of good people in the world who have taken their time and money to help make our sim building easier, and I wanted to try and help out the sim community just the same.
