Short update

The last update that reffers to my homecockpit is some months in the past.
As I described end last year, we will build our new home. Today I am happy to share a picture with you. You can see the beginning of the basement. I have highlighted in red the future room for my homecockpit project, the size will be around 19m².

It is scheduled that we move in our new home next year in the late summer.
I will update this blog with some pictures in the future to show you the new homecockpit room 🙂
In the meantime, I wish you all a nice and hot summer 2013.

Airpower 2013

Airpower 2013 took place again. Airpower is an airshow hostet by the Austrain military and Red Bull every 2nd year in Austria. The event takes place on the military airport Hinterstoisser in the city of Zeltweg.

The last 3 times we went from Thursday until Sunday, while the airshow itself is on Friday and Saturday.

Here you will find some photos and videos from the fabulous show

Looking forward to 2015.

Disassembling – Day 4

Today we have managed to move the whole MIP and Overhead.

Therefore we had to unmount the MIP in a lot of handy parts, load it into cars, unload and rebuild it.

Hey, we where good. Only 17 screws left when we finished to rebuilt it 🙂 We have absolutely no clue where we missed those screws…

A very big thank to my brother and father to help me moving all the stuff.

Disassembling – Day 2

Today I have removed all USB, LAN, power and other connections were the PCs and other stuff was attached.

It took around 3 hours to get those untangeld. I sorted the cables and put them into a storage.

Some annunciator had to be disconnected from the LED cards because they were directly wired, such as the front panels from the MIP.

All cables removed

The next step will be to disassemble the whole MIP, this is scheduled for friday.

Last full-working setup picture

Here is a last picture from my homecockpit setup before it will get dismounted and stored in a save place until the new house is ready to rebuild the homecockpit in a seperate room.

The disassembling will start next week.

I will do one last flight rotation today from LOWW-LOWI-LOWW.

After the last rotation @Austrian Technical Base – LOWW.
