Much as I'd love to have the full-out combo on this website, I console myself by thinking there wouldn't be enough joystick buttons/switches for actual sim-playing. (Lame, I know. Like saying a Lamborghini doen't have the proper plug-in for my iTouch MP3 player )

If money were no object, I'd get one if they made a 109 version....

If money was no object I would buy a real Spitfire and take it on the airshow circuit.

I think it's awsome, and my friends allready know that I'm a crackpot

ooooh, I wanna have one!!!

It would be a waste of money though, the kids would have it dismantled in a minute.

+1 -S!- Badass stick! For me it was enough, spending money on simped f16 + hotas warthog without using it now for 1 year! It mounted on a self made gaming seat with a porsche seat (electrically adjustable).

I think, I won't use it all until I get my triple monitor and our cod flight sim gets better..

BTW:Has anyone a good 24 or 27 " screen with nearly no bezel? I am searching and searching and I only see the samsung, made for triple monitors so far. But this is too expensive. I wonder, why my NEC 40" public display hace just 1cm bezel and some lg and samsung tv's also have it this thin, but you cannot find any monitor having such thin bezels. It is currently a shame!

Oh, and French company making 109 stick etc was Tarmac Aces- now defunct. Still working well for me

Awesome stick. Owning one of those would attract negative comments from the jealous crowd for sure. Power to the people who can afford that beauty......its not me unfortunately.

I would have to win the lottery before I wasted money on all that tosh. I would actually feel embarrassed sat behind them controls and think I would lose a lot of my friends due to the fact they might think I was a crackpot.

Interesting topic.

My immersion is the screen. All the other bits such as flight-stick don't enter into it.
