Flying a real 737 on PilotEdge

Just finished a flight from KLAS to KVNY. It is quite the challenge in my Sim flying single pilot ops in basically a real 737-200. All the parts are real and all work on the pilots side and soon the co-pilots side. I love flying on PE with this plane! Crossing altitudes all have to be done in my head, no VNAV here baby. :)
Thanks PilotEdge!!

ps, ok I know it's not a 'REAL' 737 but darn close ;)

Hi,
It is my personal Sim,located in my basement South Bend, IN. Anyone is welcome to fly it if in the area. Allot of work to do still but it is flyable and rarely need the keyboard to interact.

Thanks Guys! I really need a co-pilot at times! lol Hope the controllers forgive me when I make mistakes, workload is nuts. I was sweating the other night after a flight. LOL
