747-400 flightdeck interior

(OP)
I need CAD drawing with dimensions of the flightdeck of Boeing 747-400 for a flight simulator
project, basic Width/Height/Lenght would do.

RE: 747-400 flightdeck interior

Why? For whom are you building a flight simulator?

RE: 747-400 flightdeck interior

Call Boeing?? Doubt they will give it to you - but you never know!

RE: 747-400 flightdeck interior

I've seen someone pull the dimensional data out of the applicable aircraft model from a flight simulator software program. It obviously wasn't "CAD" data, but it did have all the dimensions to a reasonable degree of accuracy. It took some serious spreadsheet slogging to format it for the intended (mis)application.

Thank you for a quick response (hookie66).
This is a personal project.
Most of home built simulators that are out there
are not accurate designs depictions...

RE: 747-400 flightdeck interior

Thank you MikeTheEngineer,
If Boeing will give or will not, I have no idea at this point though I did notice
a link on Boeings site (Licensing Boeing Digital Information) something worth trying.

Thank you IRStuff for you response,
but unfortunately the information that's probably available for Microsoft's flight simulator, or X-Plane
is not what my question is about.

RE: 747-400 flightdeck interior

(OP)
Thanks VEIBLL you're proposing reverse engineering,
But I do'not want to go that route, besides it's easier to just eyeball from ddetailed photos
readilly available.
