Can't say for stimulators or anything but what I can say with authority:

Any kind of avionics if it's ever going back in an aircraft for flight has to have documented, well, everything, refurbishment can only be done in certified FAA centers, air time needs to be documented
If any nut bolt or anything else can't be traced back to original mfg and flight hours logged, it's worthless

But that might not be what you are after if it's more decorative than getting something back in service.

I know if you run out of fuel when airborne, you can be in a heap of trouble.

I've been a pilot for 30 years. I have my private pilot rating... my complex aircraft rating.. my high performance rating.. my multi engine rating,.. my IFR rating. I currently own a Cessna 310 q train engine 6-seater. No pilots are going to use old simulator equipment because it won't match the current instrumentation and equipment and most aircraft. You might be able to set something up for fun and make money letting people play with the simulator. You just won't be able to use it for pilots to learn on. If you want more information. Contact me.

Good evening,

Easido is the most qualified & knowledgeable person on this subject thus far.

He is absolutely correct beyond the shadow of any doubt.

We would be foolish not to heed his advice.

Most impressive Mr. Easido

Good night

Regards

Rory
