hi guys.

I'm looking for a very good realistic panel for the posky 747-200!
I have 1 thats ok and has some good wing views for it but the damn auto brakes wont work 😞
and I cant seem to find the flap lewer!

anyone has a good panel for me?
I have gone through avsim but wasnt mucj luck to get 😞

is it hard to make a panel?
like say I wanted a panel that was exactly like how the cockpit is in a 747-200. would this be hard to make?
I'm thinking about how to make all the buttons work and all that..

wanna try it out. hehe

I want to have good home made panels for my aircrafts and the best graphic I can get for the ground environment.
I have installed new water and ground textures but for some wierd reasson they wont work!

It's a trade-off sometimes.

A panel such as the default 747 might look 'boring' but is functional.

Another more fancy looking panel might not do everything it promises to do.

yeah true..
good point 🙂

but I have found 1 thats ok.

do you know -how- they make panels and how they get the buttons and all that to work?
like say I had some real life photos from a 747-200 & 400 cockpit.
would it be possible for me to make a cockpit for fs2004 with those photos?

Yes you can make a panel using photos. There's a payware program called 'Panelshop' I think and I can't remember where to find it now --- you could try abacuspub.com.

In the meantime check out this page and see what you can use. Some good tutorials here as well ➡

Just remembered the Payware is called Panel Studio and you can get it here ➡ http://www.fspanelstudio.com/

The good thing is that there is a Demo Version available so you get an idea what it's all about.
