Help a brother

[vortexringstate]

Hi all

 

I know each and every one of you guys are affected in some way by this damn Virus. It is really hurting a lot of us. I am appealing to this group for some support to help a mate of mine- not in money, but in donation of surplus/unused/replaced SIM hardware.

 

Until last week he was a commercial pilot but has now been made redundant. Like me, and many of you all, flying is everything to him. He had overcome significant adversity to attain his dream job -only to lose it as a result of Covid-19 layoffs here. He will survive but he is pretty devastated.

 

I was lucky and have kept my job.... for now. And I am fortunate to have an escape here in DCS and other E-flight software- but my buddy doesn't have any SIM gear or way to fly. He LOVES coming over and using my Rig and cant believe the realism.

 

My mission is to build him a VR simpit so he can keep flying and keep his dream alive. I thought I would canvas the group to see if any of you fellow aviators has recently upgraged their PC, GFX, HOTAS & Stick, Pedals, Rift etc and happen to have the old stuff on a shelf.... please consider getting in touch.

 

Drop me a PM- It may take a bit of logistics for me to pull this off but Im eager to give it a go.

 

Thanks and Take care.
