Almost Aviation: Building beautiful flight simulator control panels is a practical hobbyist guide by Mark Hurst focused on constructing custom physical interfaces for desktop flight simulation. Available descriptions identify its central project as scratch-built control panels for operating the GPS and autopilot functions in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, commonly known as FSX. Its subject is therefore not real-world pilot instruction, nor a general survey of flight simulators. It addresses the often separate craft of turning on-screen aircraft controls into tangible switches, buttons, indicators, and panel layouts. The book occupies a useful space between simulation enthusiasm, do-it-yourself electronics, computer interfacing, and design. Its stated emphasis on beautiful panels is significant: the objective is not merely to make commands work, but to produce controls that look coherent and feel appropriate to an aviation setting. Because published detail about the individual chapters is limited, the book is best understood as an end-to-end project guide whose value lies in connecting planning, construction, software control, and visual finish into a usable simulator cockpit component.
