The TRC 472F Cabin is a full size fuselage to create a very realistic experience like you have never seen before. Only flying a real aircraft can beat this experience. Open the door and step in you own Cessna cockpit. Everything is included. A windshield, two doors with soft padding on the inside, carpeting on the floor, two adjustable seats, ceiling lighting, two fans for fresh air with adjustable nozzles, switches for lighting and fans and sockets for head sets. All you need to do is add your TRC 472 Flight Deck and you are ready to fly.

The unique TRC1000 is a 100% scale replica of a popular Glass Cockpit System as found in many modern aircraft. The display functionality is supported by Flight Simulator Software like Microsoft's professional Simulation Platform ESP, by Flight Simulator FSX and (with additional software packages from third parties) Microsoft FS9. All buttons and rotary encoders work as you expect them to do, even the Joystick function on the right hand side of the PFD and MFD bezel is implemented.

The TRC472 Flight Deck is so realistic that you can hardly tell the difference between the simulator and the real aircraft. Modelled after the popular Cessna 172 Skyhawk, all details are precisely reproduced according to the exact dimensions of the original panel and they can be found in exactly the same position. Using gauges modelled after the original, and designed to be driven from a Personal Computer, the TRC472 is the ultimate training device for pilots. Together with the TRC 472F Cabin, it's the best Flight Simulator Experience available on the market today.
