 Big thanks and shoutouts to all people who helped developing flightgear and the 787-8 model. I've been truly sitting in this cockpit for hours now to learn about and play with the plane, everything else was forgotten. The combination  of visuals, hardware interfacing, ATC audio feed, soundscape of hydraulics/APU/turbines and interaction with this machine captured me completely. I was in there :)  Big thanks and shoutouts to all people who helped developing flightgear and the 787-8 model.

 Install it, try it and enjoy this precious gem of free and open-source software yourself. And yeah, try to get a good joystick at least, rudder pedals and throttle stick might also prove beneficial if you're getting a bit more serious about it. Install it, try it and enjoy this precious gem of free and open-source software yourself.
