The original Boeing 737 cockpit in itself is fascinating and has given us the opportunity to explain many functions when removing components. With the imminent launch of our simulator construction, the cockpit gets a new purpose. Therefore, the participants of the Fliegerwerkstatt start preparing the skin accordingly:
To ensure that no injuries occur at the cut edges, these are carefully deflashed.
Since the cockpit with its blue color would reflect too much light to the projection screen, it must be matt coated black.
Therefore, it is first sanded and then taped to protect.
Three coats were necessary to deeply color the cockpit black. Each group of our three partner schools was responsible for a painting:
The first task took over Ikeade, Shamel, Fidel, Omar and Ferhat.
We continued with Ahmet, Tobias, Fadl, Tayourou and Saim.
Hristo, Muhammed, Anil and Bilal were very proud for their final painting!
